In
long lead II, the first complex is the normally conducted PQRST one, the next
is the blocked P and the next is a ventricular escape beat ( we can see clearly
the wide complex in
D3 and D1 at the same time ) and then the cycle repeats. In this case, we see a
particular pattern - escape ventricular
beat, next is the captured beat and the
next is the blocked P wave and the cycle repeats ( escape beat- capture beat-
blocked P wave ). So this 2nd degree AV Block and with the specific
pattern ( Escape beat-capture beat- block P wave ). So it is called :
Escape-capture Bigeminy.
