AB It’s  now  time  to  begin  our  discussion  of  arrhythmias,  one  of  the  most  important  aspects  of  clinical  electrocardiography.  In  the  last  chapter,  we  reviewed  the  fate  of  the  normal  sinus  depolarization,  using  either  a  simple  or  expanded  laddergram  to  illustrate  passage  of  the  impulse  through  the  AV  node  and  the  remainder  of  the  specialized  conduction  system  until  activating  the  ventricles  (Figure  13-1).  A  cardiac  arrhythmia  may  be  defined  as  any  disruption  or  aberration  of  this  normal  electrical  sequence  from  start  to  finish.
