Özet

Background: The atrioventricular (AV) dissociation, which is frequently used in differential diagnosis of wide QRS complex tachycardia (WQCT), is the most specific finding of ventricular tachycardia (VT) with lower sensitivity. Herein, we aimed to show the importance of Lewis lead ECG records to detect 'visible p waves' during WQCT.
