Match each classic electrocardiographic (ECG) description to its corresponding cardiac condition.

- Sawtooth baseline flutter waves, often with a regular ventricular responseAtrial flutter
- Delta wave with a shortened PR interval and widened QRS complexWolff-Parkinson-White syndrome
- Diffuse ST-segment elevations with concurrent PR-segment depressionsAcute pericarditis
Cevap
Mobitz type I block presents with progressive PR lengthening and a dropped QRS; atrial flutter shows sawtooth waves; Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome features a delta wave and short PR interval; acute pericarditis is marked by diffuse ST elevations and PR depressions.
Each listed ECG finding is a pathognomonic hallmark of its respective condition. Mobitz type I involves progressive AV node fatigue (Wenckebach). Atrial flutter generates macroreentrant circuits leading to sawtooth waves. WPW syndrome creates early ventricular depolarization via an accessory pathway, visible as a delta wave. Acute pericarditis causes diffuse subepicardial inflammation, reflecting as widespread ST elevations and PR depressions.
