Especially can result in ventricular fibrillation if happens at a vulnerable moment like the middle of T-wave. 0:10 premature ventricular contractions back to back can be seen here. 0:22 this is the first time we see a correct ECG pattern so far. It’s only lasts a single cycle. 0:25 marks the start of ventricular tachycardia. One of two patterns that require a defibrillator. If not treated, can cause ventricular fibrillation. 0:37 ventricular fibrillation is starting. Blood pressure is zero. Heart is just twitching without a pattern, blood is not being pumped. Approximately 5 minutes until brain death. Defibrillation is required immediately. 0:53 you can see much finer waves now. Much harder to treat. Less likely to respond to defibrillation. 1:05 all cardiac impulses stop. Hypoxia resulted from ventricular fibrillation is making heart tissue ischemic. Heart is dying.

For those that want to know the ecg, this patient was going through a myocardial ischemia ( heart attack) in which Premature ventricular contraction (PVC) are very common due to damaged heart tissue. Sometimes this PVC occur during vulnerable periods of cardiac cycle ( R ON T PHENOMENON) leading to Ventricular tachycardia which then leads to Ventricular fibrillation and finally cardiac arrest.

[@rifleman1002]

Infarction and Ischemia are kinda different though (one causes the other, one is reversible, the other isn't). Heart Attacks are Myocardial Infarctions. Myocardial Ischemia will inevitably lead to Infarction. Other than that, you're completely correct. The elevated ST intervals indicated ischemia has degraded to infarction, which most likely would be an STEMI, which is the most lethal of all heart attack types.

Just to relieve some anxiety, I worked as a cardiac monitor tech at a hospital, and I have never seen anyone go through the fatal process shown here in this short amount of time. I believe this is a simulation. From what I saw this process typically took many minutes or hours, and with medical intervention the odds were very good to save the patient. Obviously there are fatal cardiac events that happens suddenly, but for a huge majority of patients I was always surprised at just how resilient the heart was. You realize it when you are monitoring a 90 year old lady in AFib with a heart rate of 200+bpm for 2 weeks, who is just acting normal and walking around her hospital room. We even saw people in ventricular tachycardia who were fully awake and reported having no symptoms.

I think they typically wait until you're 40, but I think it's a good idea for everyone to have a baseline. If you ever have a cardiac event, they can compare it to your baseline (which is unique) and it can help significantly with diagnosis. Just make sure you try to get it with the same medical system your ER is in so they have it in their electronic records.

Damn, this brought me back to when I was in a local hospital, I think I was admitted for a severe asthma attack (I was like 5 years old), I was left alone in the ward because it's night time already and visitors aren't allow to visit anymore, I remember hearing this sound from inside the same ward I was in and it was terrifying, I woke up around 2 AM or something to the sound of profuse bleeping and suddenly a monitor just flatlined, I didn't knew what that was when I was little but now that I grew up, I knew that that means someone died, so witnessing someone dying in the same ward is scary, especially at night and everyone is asleep, I think that person was just a few rows away from me and the next day I woke up, that person was gone. Still scared me till this day knowing that I've witness someone had died during that day.

I can't believe I was so close to this happening to me. For most of 2018, my heart rate was in the 30's and 40's, and doctors couldn't figure out why or what to do. It would occasionally spike when i was stand up, but starting in the fall it didn't even have the strength to do that, it just stayed low. My health was at the point that I couldn't walk without help and breathing was difficult, and as a last ditch effort, they were going to implant a heart monitor inside my chest to see if they could find anything. By the grace of God, on the operating table, they quickly realized I needed a pacemaker. So what was supposed to be a 30 minute surgery turned into an 8 hour one, as they decided to do the pacemaker instead of the monitor (I had used heart monitors before, but never inside my chest like they planned here) Before i woke up, I was sure I was going to die in a few months. When I woke up, everything felt better. I was still weak, the surgery aftermath was painful and walking was hard. But my breathing was normal again, it was like waking up in a new body. Through testing they saw that my heart quickly, within a couple weeks, lost its ability to beat at all without a pacemaker assisting, meaning the pacemaker works 100% of the day. It also meant that 2 or 3 weeks after the day of the surgery, if I hadn't gotten the pacemaker, my heart would've stopped. I stared death in the face for most of that year. I've had numerous health issues since, some just as painful, like rheumatoid arthritis which I'm currently on chemotherapy for. All of this happening and I'm only 19, the heart issues started at age 15. But I'll always be grateful, extremely grateful, that I was on the edge of death and got to wake up from the operating table with decades left of my life. Most people in my situation never got that opportunity 🙏

Let's break this down so no one else is confused, so here we go. 0:00: Here we see ST elevations, indicative of a STEMI, or widow maker heart attack. 0:03: Here we see the first premature ventricular contraction, becoming multifocal only moments later. Can be very dangerous if it occurs during T wave, called an R on T phenomenon. 0:10: Here we see 2 PVC's in a row, called a couplet. 0:17: 2nd PVC couplet. Condition worsening. 0:22: Here we see the first normal beat, immediately followed by a PVC. Dangerous R on T phenomenon is occurring. 0:24: R on T phenomenon has led to an extremely dangerous rhythm called ventricular tachycardia. Cardiac output is very minimal. Patient may or may not be responsive. Can lead to VF if not treated immediately. 0:37: Ventricular fibrillation is starting. Heart is quivering instead of beating. Patient is pulseless. Zero cardiac output. Immediate defibrillation is needed. Can lead to death if not treated immediately. Will become finer over time. 0:53: Much finer waves now. Much harder to treat. Less likely to respond to defibrillation. Death is imminent. 1:03: Fine VF evolves into asystole. All cardiac impulses stop. No oxygen to brain or rest of body. Requires CPR. Patient is dying or already dead. Chance of survival is less than 10%. Notify family.

Did anyone else find it weird how the electrical activity turned into a decaying sinusoid? Why did it do that?

[@caterscarrots3407]

If the ventricles are contracting super fast and give you V tach, they are pumping only tablespoons of blood out due to the extremely fast heart rate. That isn't enough to supply the heart itself, let alone the whole body. From this point it can either spontaneously terminate into a slower rhythm like accelerated ventricular rhythm or sinus rhythm with AV block to supply itself and the body with blood(paroxysmal V tach) or it can start spasming and not pumping any blood out(V fib). As the V fib gets worse it slowly decays into asystole and at that point, only adrenaline can help with it.
