Oct 21, 201510 yr Hard to be too specific, because I cannot see the lead or the boxes very well. It looks to be a SR, with a bundle branch block, possibly a 1st degree AV block. Without seeing the blocks clearly, I cannot determine the rate. What did you think it was?

Oct 21, 201510 yr I don't see any discernible block, but it is hard to see the gridlines. It looks like normal sinus to me, but the second lead may be showing some ST elevation.
Oct 21, 201510 yr Author Patient had a stroke which caused bleeding in the brain. Patient died later that day.

Oct 21, 201510 yr I don't see any discernible block, but it is hard to see the gridlines. It looks like normal sinus to me, but the second lead may be showing some ST elevation.There is a bundle branch block in which the tell tell is the widened QRS. Not the same as the first, second, or third degree blocks. I vote a sinus rythm with a BBB and a probable ST segment elevation/depression depending on which of the leads are being read. I prefer lead II. It's been a while but I think lead II shows the true deflections of the p wave, QRS, and t wave...but it's been a while!
Oct 21, 201510 yr Bundle branch blocks can skew the morphology of the ST segment, leading to an ST elevation.
Oct 21, 201510 yr P waves are not discernible. Needed to be re-done with better lead placement. May be a bundle branch block configuration, but that is a cardiologist's call. Highly doubt the stroke was related.
Oct 22, 201510 yr Assuming the two leads are from the same patient. Bottom lead clearly shows "p" waves = sinus rhythm. 17 little boxes between "qrs" complexes = HR 88 = Normal sinus rhythm."QRS" WIDTH = 3 little boxes = .12 = BBB"PR int" = 4 little boxes = .20 = borderline First degree blockMy call: NSR with BBB and borderline First degree AV Block.
