This is part of: Supraventricular Rhythms
AV junctional tachycardia / Junctional Ectopic Tachycardia (JET)
{{{locatieafbeelding}}}
Atrial rate 60-100 bpm
Ventricular rate 70-130 bpm
Regularity regular
Origin AV node
P-wave RP > RP
Effect of adenosine slows down heartrate
Example ECG: Lead II shows competition between the sinus rate and the nodal tachycardia. After around the third beat, some sinus beats are conducted and followed by QRS complexes. Thereafter the nodal tachycardia takes over resulting in a negative p-wave around the 8th beat, the proof of a junctional rhythm.Junctional Ectopic Tachycardia (JET)
