Abstract Polymorphic ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation VF carry important prognostic implications especially in the post myocardial infarction period. However artifact on the electrocardiographic tracing can mimic VF particularly on routinely recorded rhythm strips in hospitals. Such misinterpretation can lead to expensive and potentially risky diagnostic and therapeutic steps. We report on such a case and highlight the need for careful inspection of the tracing. Background Arrhythmias may be documented in patients with cardiac or serious medical disorders admitted to units with telemetry monitoring particularly intensive care wards 1 . Polymorphic ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation VF carry particular prognostic signficance owing to their association with sudden cardiac death. However artifact on the electrocardiographic tracing can mimic VF particularly on routinely recorded rhythm strips in hospitals. Misinterpretation can lead to expensive and potentially risky diagnostic and therapeutic steps. We report on such a case and highlight the need for careful inspection of the tracing.
