AV block - 1st degree | Prolonged PR PR interval > 0.20 |

AV Block - 2nd degree Type I | Progressively longer PR intervals Then dropped QRS |
AV Block - 2nd degree Type II | P:QRS = 2:1, 3:1, 4:1 regular pattern QRS > 0.12 |
AV Block - 3rd degree | independent... no communication |
PVC on EKG | No P waves QRS wide and bizarre T large |
PVC sign | Apical/radial pulse deficit |
Vtach on EKG | 3+ PVCs in a row QRS rate is 150-250 QRS is > 0.12 (wide) |
Vfib on EKG | extremely irregular |
Antidysrhythmia Classes | 1 - sodium blocker 2 - beta blocker 3 - potassium blocker 4 - calcium blocker |
sodium blockers used for | VT, SVT, PVC, prevent Vfib (the ventriculars) |
Examples of sodium blockers | lidocaine, procainamide |
beta blockers used for | SVT, Afib, Aflutter |
what do beta blockers do? | lower HR vasodilation lower contractilit |
examples of beta blockers | atenolol, the -olols |
what do potassium blockers do? | delay repolarization (increases PR and QT, widens QRS) |
examples of potassium blockers | amiodarone, sotalol |
what do calcium blockers do? | lower HR vasodilation decrease contractility |
Calcum blockers used for? | SVT, Afib, Aflutter |
Example of calcum blocker | amlodipine |
What does digoxin do? | decrease HR increase contratility |
What does adenosine do? | decrease conduction through AV node decrease HR |
what does atropine do? | anticholinergic increase HR |
What does magnesium do? | decrease conduction through AV node |
what does hydralazine do? | vasodilation |
what does nitro do? | vasodilation |
Small box on EKG | 0.04 seconds |
Large box on EKG | 0.20 seconds |
5 large boxes on EKG | 1 second |
30 large boxes on EKG | 6 seconds (1/10th of a minute) |

normal PR interval | 0.12 - 0.20 seconds |
normal QRS | 0.04 - 0.12 seconds |

ICD candidates | syncope with Vtach/Vfib survived SCD spontaneous sustained Vtach life-threatening dysrhythmias |
ICD teaching? | No MRI if it fires, call PCP if it fires and you don't feel well, call 911 |
Pacemaker candidates | AV block AFib with RVR BBB Vtach Cardiomyopathy HF SA node dysfunction |
Pacemaker teaching? | No MRI if it fires, call PCP if it fires and you don't feel well, call 911 take daily pulse |
Aortic dissection signs | weak or absent pulses different between bilateral upper extremities |
Aortic dissection complication | cardiac tamponade (JVD, pulsus paradoxus) |
Kidney functions | Eliminate toxins regulate acid/base balance erythropoietin release |

normal urine output | 30 ml/hr |
kidney function (AFEVER) | A = acid base balance F = fluid/electrolyte balance E = elimination of wastes V = Vitamin D E = erythropoietin release R - renin releaase |
kidney failure symptoms (AFEVER) | A = acidic F = K up, CA down, Phos up E = retain fluids V = CA down, hypocalcemia E = H&H down, RBC down - anemia R = BP up |
