Overview

Differentiating Tachycardia Associated Wolf-Parkinson-White syndrome from other Diseases

Abbreviations: VT: Ventricular tachycardia; VF: Ventricular fibrillation; AF: Atrial fibrillation ; AVNRT: Atrionodal reentrant tachycardia; AV node: Atrioventricular node; AVRT: Atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia; AT: Arial tachycardia; PJRT: Permanent junctional reciprocating tachycardi; SNRT: Sinus nodal reentrant tachycardia.

Regular Narrow complex tachycardia (QRS≤ 120ms) Irregular Narrow complex tachycardia (QRS≤ 120ms) Regular wide QRS tachycardia(QRS>120ms) Irregular wide QRS tachycardia (QRS>120ms)
Physiologic sinus tachycardia Atrial fibrillation (AF) Ventricular tachycardia/flutter AF or atrial flutter or focal atrial tachycardia with varying block conducted with abrerration
Inappropriate sinus tachycardia Focal atrial tachycardia or atrial flutter with varying AV block Antidromic AV re-entrant tachycardia [[Antidromic AV reentrant tachycardia]] due to nodo-ventricular/fascicular accessory pathway with variable VA conduction
Sinus nodal re-entrant tachycardia Multifocal atrial tachycardia Supraventricular tachycardia with aberration/bunddle branch block (preexcisting or rate-dependent tachycardia pre-excited AF
Focal atrial tachycardia Atrial or junction tachycardia with preexcitation/bystander accessory pathway Polymorphic VT
AV nodal re-entrant tachycardia Supraventricular tachycardia with QRS widening due to electrolyte disturbance or antiarrhythmic drug Torsade-de pointed
Orthodromic AV re-entrant tachycardia Ventricular pace rhythm Ventricular fibrillation
Junctional ectopic tachycardia
Ideopathic VT (high septal VT)


Arrhythmia Rhythm Rate P wave PR Interval QRS Complex Response to Maneuvers Epidemiology Co-existing Conditions
Atrial Fibrillation (AFib)[2][3]
  • Irregularly irregular
  • Absent
  • Fibrillatory waves
  • Absent
  • Less than 0.12 seconds, consistent, and normal in morphology in the absence of aberrant conduction
  • 2.7–6.1 million people in the United States have AFib
  • 2% of people younger than age 65 have AFib, while about 9% of people aged 65 years or older have AFib
Atrial Flutter[4]
  • Regular or Irregular
  • 75 (4:1 block), 100 (3:1 block) and 150 (2:1 block) beats per minute (bpm), but 150 is more common
  • Sawtooth pattern of P waves at 250 to 350 bpm
  • Biphasic deflection in V1
  • Varies depending upon the magnitude of the block, but is short
  • Less than 0.12 seconds, consistent, and normal in morphology
  • Conduction may vary in response to drugs and maneuvers dropping the rate from 150 to 100 or to 75 bpm
Atrioventricular nodal reentry tachycardia (AVNRT)[5][6][7][8]
  • Regular
  • 140-280 bpm
  • Slow-Fast AVNRT:
    • Pseudo-S wave in leads II, III, and AVF
    • Pseudo-R' in lead V1.
  • Fast-Slow AVNRT
  • Slow-Slow AVNRT
  • Inverted, superimposed on or buried within the QRS complex (pseudo R prime in V1/pseudo S wave in inferior leads)
  • Absent (P wave can appear after the QRS complex and before the T wave, and in atypical AVNRT, the P wave can appear just before the QRS complex)
  • Less than 0.12 seconds, consistent, and normal in morphology in the absence of aberrant conduction
  • QRS alternans may be present
Multifocal Atrial Tachycardia[9][10]
  • Irregular
  • Atrial rate is > 100 beats per minute
  • Varying morphology from at least three different foci
  • Absence of one dominant atrial pacemaker, can be mistaken for atrial fibrillation if the P waves are of low amplitude
  • Less than 0.12 seconds, consistent, and normal in morphology
Paroxysmal Supraventricular Tachycardia
  • Regular
  • 150 and 240 bpm
  • Absent
  • Hidden in QRS
  • Absent
  • Narrow complexes (< 0.12 s)
Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome[11][12]
  • Regular
  • Atrial rate is nearly 300 bpm and ventricular rate is at 150 bpm
  • Less than 0.12 seconds
  • A delta wave and evidence of ventricular pre-excitation if there is conduction to the ventricle via ante-grade conduction down an accessory pathway
  • A delta wave and pre-excitation may not be present because bypass tracts do not conduct ante-grade.
Ventricular Fibrillation (VF)[13][14][15]
  • Irregular
  • 150 to 500 bpm
  • Absent
  • Absent
