Module 7: Ventricular Rhythms — ECG Academy

PVCs through terminal ventricular arrest rhythms. This module teaches the full ventricular progression: ectopy, VT, VF, escape rhythms, and the final non-shockable patterns that demand immediate escalation.

Lessons

• PVCs and Ventricular Ectopy — Identify ventricular ectopy patterns, classify risk features, and escalate when PVC burden or morpho
• PVC Patterns & Frequency — Recognize named PVC patterns, describe worsening ventricular burden, and know when grouped ventricul
• R-on-T Phenomenon — Understand the vulnerable period of repolarization, recognize when a PVC falls on the T wave, and le
• Ventricular Tachycardia Basics — Recognize ventricular tachycardia on telemetry, distinguish nonsustained from sustained VT, and esca
• Monomorphic vs Polymorphic VT — Distinguish fixed-shape from changing-shape VT, recognize Torsades de Pointes, and communicate the s
• VT Clinical Significance — Translate VT recognition into urgency: stable does not mean benign, the WCT rule protects patients,
• Ventricular Fibrillation — Recognize ventricular fibrillation as a lethal rhythm requiring immediate emergency escalation. Unde
• Asystole & Idioventricular Rhythms — Recognize asystole, pulseless electrical activity (PEA), idioventricular rhythm (IVR), and accelerat
• Ventricular Standstill & Agonal Rhythm — Recognize ventricular standstill and agonal rhythm as terminal ventricular arrest patterns, distingu
