Capture beat – correction

The Ventricular arrhythmias page has been updated with a correction of the explanation of a capture beat.

The statement ‘occurs when an SVT conducts in a normal fashion’ has been replaced with ‘occurs when a sinus or atrial impulse conducts through the AV node in a normal fashion between wide QRS complexes because the ventricle is in a non-refractory phase’

Thanks to Pete for picking this up.
