Abstract
- Narrow complex bigeminy is a common electrocardraphic finding that can be caused by second degree sinoatrial exit block or ectopic atrial bigeminy. These rhythms can be very challenging to distinguish on a 12-lead electrocardiogram. In this case of an elderly woman who presented with narrow complex bigeminy, we review the differentiating features of second degree sinoatrial exit block and ectopic atrial bigeminy.
