what happened?
Sad day at the emergency department unit!
18 y/o girl came to ED complaining of worsening dyspnea since two weeks ago. She claimed that she could not sleep at all because of dyspnea. In her medical records, according to chronic cough, she was recently underwent a biopsy of the lymph node in her mediastinum, and the results showed lymphoproliferative disorder.

You are on an on-call duty, emergency department nurse sent you the following ECG.
What is your next appropriate step in management of the patient?
An 80 year old asymptomatic lady came with below ECG:
What is your diagnosis?
A young lady with preexcitation underwent EP ablation. Post-ablation, Adenosine was administered to block the AV node and confirm successful accessory pathway ablation. Below is the tracing following the procedure:
Which statement is wrong?
35 y/o man came to ED with complain of fatigue & orthopnea from 1 month ago. echocardiography was shown :
Which one is NOT seen in this patient?
A 46 years old lady referred for evaluation of wide complex tachycardia.
Both ECG in Arrhythmia and sinus rhythm are given:
What is your most probable diagnosis?
A 54 years old man with Preexcitation.ECG is shown:
Where is accessory pathway?
46 years old lady, presented to the ER with chief complaint of sudden weakness , low blood pressure and presyncope.
She was diagnosed with hypertension from 5 years ago and was on Losartan 25 mg BID from then.
In the ER her BP was 90/66 mmHg and she claimed receiving 1000 ml Normal saline in a clinic before referring to the ER, and her SBP was 70 mmHg the time.
She denied overusing her medication and any other symptoms.
Below you can find ECG and echocardiogram.
