Two ECG’s this week from a 76yr old female who presented complaining of palpitations and dysponea.
She has a history of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and chronic smoking related lung disease.
Medications include warfarin, calcium channel blocker, and other non-cardiac related medications.
The first ECG was performed when the patient arrived, the second ECG was performed not long after but prior to treatment being instigated.
