EKG

Parts of EKG wave

100

Represents atrial depolarization

P wave

200

Segment representative of the current running from the SA node to the AV node

PR segment 

300

Representative of ventricular depolarization

QRS segment

400

Representative the interval between ventricular depolarization and repolarization 

ST segment 

500

Representative of ventricular repolarization 

T wave

EKG medication

100

medication used for sinus brady

atropine 

200

medicine used second line fore sinus brady

epinephrine

300

used for SVT, have crash cart ready

adenosine 

400

used for PVCs, VT, AFIB, AFLUTTER

amioderone 

500

1. first line used to prevent clots with afib and afutter 

2. second line used to prevent clots with afib and aflutter

heparin 

warfarin 

blood flow through the heart

100

Valve that blood passes through from the right atrium to the right ventricle 

Tricuspid valve

200

valve that blood exits the right ventricle into the lung

pulmonic valve

300

valve that blood flows through exiting the left atrium and entering left ventrical 

mitral valve 

400

valve that blood flows out of left ventricle into aorta and body

aortic valve 

500

node that generates 40-60 bpm 

av node 

ekg medication dosage

100

1 mg, no max 

epinepherine

200

6mg-12mg-12mg q 2-3 mins (administer with 20 cc flush)

adenosine 

300

dose 0.5-1mg every 3-5 mins for a max dose of 3 mg 

atropine

400

300mg first

150 second

amioderone

500

1. labs to monitor with heparin/ antidote

2. labs to monitor with warfarin 

1. PTT and Activated PTT/ protamine sulfate

2. PT and INR/ vitamin K 

other interventions with EKG

100

shock treatment used with vtac and vfib @ 50-200 Joules

synchronized cardioversion 

200

shock treatment used at 200-360 joules for VT and VFIB

unsynchronized/vfib

300

you must have a pulse to use this type of shock treatment 

synchronized cardioversion

400

used to help with "chronic" sinus brady, possible for "chronic" sinus tach 

pacemaker

500

can be curative for younger patients with "chronic" afib and a flutter without needing a pace maker

ablation
