A&P
The intrinsic rate of the SA node
What is a HR of 60-100?
What is the PRI?
This is a regular rhythm with a PR interval of 0.35
What is a first-degree block?
Patients with A-fib should be on this kind of medication
What are anti-coagulants?
I am a regular rhythm, but my p waves are inverted, retrograde or missing.
What is a junctional rhythm?
Ventricular contraction is shown on the ECG by this.
What is the QRS Complex?
The number of large squares in a 6- second strip
What is 6 ?
A gradually lengthening PR interval with a random dropped QRS complex
What is a Wenckebach (2nd Type I)
The two rhythms we defibrillate.
What are Vtach and Vfib?
I am an irregular rhythm with no discernable p waves.
What is A-fib?
The P wave represents this.
What is Atrial contraction?
The R-to-R interval is used to measure this.
What is regularity?
When both the R’s and P’s are regular but don’t correlate.
What is a third degree block?
The medication you would give your patient for a HR of 38 and c/o SOB and dizziness.
What is atropine?
I have no p waves, a wide QRS, and a rate of 140.
What is V-tach?
The intrinsic rate of the AV node
What is a HR of 40-60?
This is the normal duration of the QRS complex.
What is < 0.12 secs ?
Every QRS follows a p wave, but there are extra P’s that are not conducted
What is a 2nd degree type II ?
This intervention uses electricity to slow down a HR and reset the rhythm.
What is synchronized cardioversion?
I am a regular rhythm with no discernable p waves and a HR > 160
What is SVT?
PVCs that look different
What are multifocal PVCs?
The measurement of one SMALL box on the ECG graph paper.
What is 0.04 secs?
Every few beats there will be a missing beat, but the PR Interval will not lengthen.
What is 2nd degree Type II ?
The intervention for third degree heart block.
What is pacing?
I am totally chaotic, lethal rhythm.
What is V-fib?
