Tachyarrhythmias
on ECG
A comprehensive work on cardiac arrhythmias focusing on tachyarrhythmias. From basic to advanced, in 6 complexity levels for progressive learning.
6 Complexity Levels
The content was developed to be read continuously, where each topic prepares the reader for the next, creating a semantic unit from start to finish.
Level 1: Fundamental Classification
Narrow vs. wide QRS tachycardias — the foundation for all clinical reasoning
Level 2: Most Common Subtypes
AVNRT, concealed accessory pathway, atrial fibrillation, VT and VF with their distinctive characteristics
Level 3: Advanced Concepts
Extrasystoles, refractory period, RP' interval, arrhythmogenic mechanisms and VA dissociation
Level 4: Specific Arrhythmias
Ventricular pre-excitation, Wolff-Parkinson-White, accessory pathway localization
Level 5: Topographic Origin
Precise localization of arrhythmogenic foci using 12-lead ECG
Level 6: Electrophysiological Level
Invasive maneuvers, entrainment, refractory HIS technique for specialists
Diagnostic Algorithms
In addition to presenting the most widely used criteria in world literature, Dr. Kraemer developed his own algorithms based on extensive literature review, including the Kraemer Diagram.
- Basel Algorithm
- Brugada Criteria
- DII Criteria (RWPT)
- aVR Criteria (Vereckei)
- Griffith Criteria
- Bayesian Criteria
- Kraemer Diagram — author's original
- Lewis Lead
Special Topics
- Atrial Flutter Subtypes
- Monomorphic Ventricular Tachycardias
- Torsades de Pointes and Long QT Syndrome
- Wolff-Parkinson-White and variants
- Mahaim Fibers and Coumel Tachycardia
- Accessory pathway localization by ECG
"If you study it with the right interest and proper attention, with adequate time, you will notice a learning speed gain that you would not expect to achieve from any other reading."
— Dr. Alessandro Kraemer
