ECG Clues Supporting the Diagnosis of Ventricular Tachycardia

ECG Clues Supporting the Diagnosis of Ventricular Tachycardia
1.    AV dissociation (atrial capture, fusion beats)
2.    QRS duration > 140 ms for RBBB type V1 morphology; V1 > 160 ms for LBBB type V1 morphology
3.    Frontal plane axis –90° to 180°
4.    Delayed activation during initial phase of the QRS complex
5.    LBBB pattern—R wave in V1, V2 >40 ms
6.    RBBB pattern—onset of R wave to nadir of S > 100 ms
7.    Bizarre QRS pattern that does not mimic typical RBBB or LBBB QRS complex
8.    Concordance of QRS complex in all precordial leads
9.    RS or dominant S in V6 for RBBB VT
10.Q wave in V6 with LBBB QRS pattern
11.Monophasic R or biphasic qR or R/S in V1 with RBBB pattern
