[Differential diagnosis of supraventricular rhythm disorders and the tactics in the treatment with cardiac glycosides].
The article discusses the possibilities of differential diagnosis of supraventricular arrhythmians by means of carotid zone stimulation, atrial VCG and ECG recorded from right-bronchial leads. Atrial VCG can reveal the character of the ectopic P-wave and thus helps in the diagnosis of arrhythmias with conspicuous atrial activity. ECG recorded from bronchial leade makes it possible to obtain a large atrial wave and determine elements of decisive importances in the diagnosis of many rhythm disorders: junctional and combined contractions, various types of ectopic P-waves, the character of antero- and retrograde conduction. The tactics of treatment with cardiac glycosides is determined by precise diagnosis of the arrhythmia and its connection with digitalis toxicosis.
