Abstract
An elderly gentleman with ischemic cardiomyopathy with severe left ventricular dysfunction presented with acute decompensated heart failure and recurrent ventricular tachycardia which were cardioverted to sinus rhythm and put on amiodarone infusion. A few hours following cardioversion and amiodarone infusion, the monitor showed grouped beating in triplets and a 12‑lead electrocardiogram documented the same. What is the diagnosis?
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Electrocardiology is devoted exclusively to clinical and experimental studies of the electrical activities of the heart. It seeks to contribute significantly to the accuracy of diagnosis and prognosis and the effective treatment, prevention, or delay of heart disease. Editorial contents include electrocardiography, vectorcardiography, arrhythmias, membrane action potential, cardiac pacing, monitoring defibrillation, instrumentation, drug effects, and computer applications.
