Q. What artifacts can mimic VT on an EKG?
A.
🫴 Tremor Artifact: Seen in conditions like Parkinson's.
🪥 Brushing Artifact: Caused by direct contact with electrodes or leads.
🚶 Motion Artifact: From patient movement, scratching, or external sources near electrodes.
✅ Pro Tips:
-Always assess the patient.
-Compare the rhythm across multiple leads to confirm.
-Use physical maneuvers (e.g., asking the patient to stop moving or manually halting tremors momentarily).
