Background: Wide QRS complex tachycardia (WCT) differentiation into ventricular tachycardia (VT) and supraventricular wide complex tachycardia (SWCT) remains challenging despite numerous 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) criteria and algorithms. Automated solutions leveraging computerized ECG interpretation (CEI) measurements and engineered features offer practical ways to improve diagnostic accuracy. We propose automated algorithms based on (i) WCT QRS polarity direction (WCT Polarity Code [WCT-PC]) and (ii) QRS polarity shifts between WCT and baseline ECGs (QRS Polarity Shift [QRS-PS]).

Atrial flutter with 1:1 atrioventricular conduction is a rare cause of wide complex tachycardia, which presents a diagnostic challenge. This report describes a series of eight cases of 1:1 atrial flutter compiled during 2018-2022. The cases in this report include patients without class 1 anti-arrhythmic use or pre-excitation.

Diphenhydramine (DPH), a readily available first-generation H1 receptor antihistamine, can have severe consequences when taken in excessive amounts and can lead to grave outcomes such as seizures, dysrhythmias, coma, and death. Recognizing the early signs and symptoms of DPH toxicity is crucial. Fortunately, fatal adult cases of DPH overdose are rare.

Background: Unintentional plant ingestions and poisoning are common. Generally, these ingestions are asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic. Increased toxicity is often associated with the foraging for plants incorrectly identified as edible plants.
