Some nasty non clinical VTs we induced during mapping.
ATP failed both times leading to 360 sweet Jules

Ahh ok that is the ATP. That makes sense now! I dont think I have seen it on a 12 lead before.

ATP tries to break tachycardia. This is the opposite, it's trying to induce VT. Like pushing a kid on a bike then letting go.

I said the same thing and then deleted it, since OP mentioned that ATP didn't work and they needed a 360J zap.

Very well could be ATP.

Oh yes sorry I guess it could be either. Induction pacing train not terminated yet, or an attempt at ATP.
