Overview

A narrow QRS complex requires highly synchronous electrical activation of the ventricular myocardium through the rapidly conducting His-Purkinje system (HPS). and intraventricular conduction delays (IVCDs) affects the morphology or duration, or both, of the QRS complex. These changes can be fixed and present at all heart rates, or they can be transient aberration either tachycardia or bradycardia dependent.

EKG Examples

Bifascicular Block

Shown below is an EKG depicting atrial fibrillation with a controlled ventricular rate. The QRS is wide (>120ms) and has a tall R' inV1 and an S wave in V6. There is a left axis deviation. The cardiogram suggests a right bundle branch block and a left anterior hemiblock. The patient has a cardiomyopathy with an ejection fraction of 20%.
