How to read EKG strips

        Help!  

Question
Answer
show Sinus Rhythm: Normal Sinus Rhythm, Sinus Bradycardia or Sinus Tachycardia  
🗑
If you do not have a P-wave the rhythm is:   show
🗑
show 60-100 (NSR or AJR)<60 (SB, or JR)> 100 (ST or JT)  
🗑
show = Junctional Rhythm, nextlook at rate  
🗑
PR Interval = .12-.20 = (3 to 5 little boxes)   show
🗑
PR Interval = >.20 =   show
🗑
show Ventricular Tachacardia, ideoventricular, Atrial flutter, Fixed conduction (...!...!...!)  
🗑
show 0.06-0.10  
🗑
show <3 little boxes  
🗑
When do you cardiovert   show
🗑
When do you Defibulate   show
🗑
show Epinephrine, and atropine  
🗑
show Adenosine  
🗑
Nursing Diagnosis related to CABG   show
🗑
show CVP:0-4 Wedge pressure:8-15 PAP 20-30/5-15  
🗑
Pulmonary Edema   show
🗑
show A-flutter, Sinus Arrhythmia, 2 degree or 3 degree heart block, A-fib  
🗑
show Tamponade, also massive JVD  
🗑
show Model of pacemaker, type of generator, date and time of insertion, location of pulse generator, stimulation threshold, Pacer settings (eg, rate, energy output, sensitivity, and duration of interval between atrial and ventricular impulses)  
🗑
Endocarditis Infective Risk factors   show
🗑
show Friction rub. notched T wave, S/S: fever, positional chest discomfort, nonspecific ST-segment elevation, elevated ESR erythrocyte sedimentation rate, retrosternal pain that worsens during supine positioning, pulsus paradoxus  
🗑
hypokalemia wave form changes   show
🗑
show Tall QRS complexes  
🗑
hypomagnesium   show
🗑
Medications to treat ventricular dysrhythmias   show
🗑
Right Heart Failure (chronic condition)   show
🗑
Left Heart Failure   show
🗑
Inferior wall myocardial Infarction   show
🗑
Digoxin   show
🗑
A-fib   show
🗑
show ST elevation indicates immediate myocardial injury. ST depressions indicate myocardial ischemia. Q wave forms several days after a myocardial infarction, U wave is a sign of hypokalemia.  
🗑
Laxix Furosemide   show
🗑
show Reduces oxygen consumption to devrease ischemia and relieve pain. Vasodialator mainly in veins and reduces blood return to heart and preload is reduced. May cause a significant drop in cardiac output and B/P if pt is hypovolemic at higher doses.  
🗑
show Slows heartrate and decreases strength of contraction which decreases workload of heart. Relaxes blood vessels decreasing BP and increases coronary artery perfusion  
🗑

🗑
Aortic Regurgitation: S/S   show
🗑
Valve replacement teaching: pre and post   show
🗑
