#EPeeps #FellowsFirst The cardiac ICU calls that they are preparing to cardiovert this wide-complex tachycardia. Do you agree? What may be going on?
#EPeeps Many suggested sodium channel blockade or hyperkalemia

This was BOTH! Severe transient hyperkalemia superimposed on high-dose flecainide

Very complex infant on multiple AADs including high-dose propranolol for intractable EAT

Do you know why the propranolol matters? 👇

Wednesday #EchoFirst #Tweetorial on one of my favorite #FellowsFirst topics, septal motion. Thank you to @ottoecho for the excellent graphic in her textbook (amzn.to/2JIaPYC) which is an excellent read. @ASE360
2/ Abnormal septal motion can be from multiple etiologies and #EchoFirst, particularly M-mode, is a great way to distinguish among these patterns. Normally, the septum moves anteriorly (towards RV) in late diastole before moving towards the LV during systole.
3/ In LBBB, early activation of the septum causes early rapid inward contraction ("septal beaking"), causing stretch of the posterior wall which (as a result of increased restoring forces) forcefully contracts resulting in anterior displacement of the septum.

Time for my first Twitter Poll!

I believe we should abandon the terms 'sensitivity' and 'specificity' of non-invasive imaging tests. 20th century language, no longer fit for purpose! I'll explain why after poll closes.

Do you agree?
