True accelerated ventricular rhythm alarm showing why this arrhythmia is not considered an “actionable” alarm condition.

<p>Accelerated ventricular rhythm at a rate of 56 for the first 5 beats followed by 2 fusion beats; the last 2 beats are normal sinus rhythm. The invasive arterial pressure waveform (bottom tracing) shows no change between normal rhythm and accelerated ventricular rhythm which confirms the rationale for the published guidelines stating no treatment is indicated for this arrhythmia in hospital settings <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0110274#pone.0110274-Zipes1" target="_blank">[5]</a>.
