Figures & data
Figure 1. Electrocardiogram after yew poisoning showing an irregular arrhythmia at a rate of 107/min with bizarre QRS prolongation.
Figure 2. Ineffective defibrillation after ingestion of Taxus baccata (a) Irregular wide complex tachycardia terminating to arterial flutter without ventricular response. Seconds later, broad ventricular complexes appear that quickly degenerate into the irregular wide complex tachycardia. (b) Irregular wide complex tachycardia terminating to arterial flutter without ventricular response. (c-f) Ineffective defibrillation of wide complex tachycardia.
