A memorable experience

Abstract

The electrocardiographic phenomenon of cardiac memory results from aberrant ventricular activation and causes transient ECG features that can mimic ischaemia. We present the case of a patient with ischaemic cardiomyopathy who exhibited evidence of T-wave memory in the setting of multiple episodes of non-sustained ventricular tachycardia that were triggered by an insect bite.
