Question | Answer |
bradycardia=? | <60bpm |
http://www.cardionetics.com/cardiology/_cardioimages/rhythms/ecg_sinus_bradycardia_1.jpg | bradycardia <60bpm Tx:O2 and atropine |
How do you estimate heart rate? | count the # of R waves in a 6 sec. strip and X by 10. Or do 300 ___ # of large blocks between R waves. |
http://www.rnceus.com/ekg/asystole.gif | Asystole Rate:none rhythm:none Confirm in 2 leads first, Causes: ischemia, infarct. hypoxia,hypothermia, drug od, acute resp. fail. Tx: CPR, epi, atropine |
http://www.bannerhealth.com/NR/rdonlyres/5CFF4A7B-01B5-4B7A-BF9B-02737DF18C02/24236/tachycardia.jpg | tacycardia >101-160 Tx:o2 |
what does QRS wave rep.? | Ventricular depolariztion |
What is duration of PR interval? | 0.12-0.20sec |
http://www.txai.org/img/edu/PVC.jpg | PVC. rate depends on underlying rhyth. P wave absent. Causes:caffeine, stress, alcohol,acidosis,MI, hypoxemia. Tx:O2, Lidocaine or Amiodorone. |
what is normal impulse conduction? | SA-AV-Bundle of His-bundle branches-purkinje fibers. |
http://pediatriccardiology.uchicago.edu/PP/Images/Nsr.jpg | Normal sinus rhyth. |
what does P wave represent? | atrial depolarization |
ECG paper boxes | -Horizontally small box=.04s large box=.20s -vertically 1 large box=0.5mv |
What is ischemia? | decreased blood flow to the tissue;depressed or inverted T wave |
Ventricular cells | back up pacemaker with 20-45 bpm |
http://www.jewishhospital.org/myjewishhospital/images/CV-07.jpg | atrial fibrillation 400-700bpm chaotic and irregular rhyth. causes: hypoxia,ischemic heart disease, MI Tx:O2 digoxin, cardioversion, beta blockers |
Flutter=? | >200bpm |
what is Infarction? | death of tissue; the end result of ischemia or injury. |
What is duration of QRS interval? | 0.06-0.10sec |
what is the S-T segment? | atrial and ventricular repolarization, should be at baseline, -Tall or spiked waves=Hyperkalemia,MI -elevation=infarction -depression=ischemia |
http://www.learnekgs.com/V-Fib%20LARGE.jpg | V Fib Rate:NONE rhythm: chaotic pQRS wav: absent No cardiac output or pulse Causes: acute MI, untreated Vtach,hypothrermia, electrolyte imbalance, electric shock. Tx: Defib., CPR, O2 |
Tachycardia=? | >100bpm |
http://www.cprworks.com/vt | VTach. Rate 100-200bpm rhythm regular. no P waves, causes same as PVc Tx: defib. if no pulse, lidocaine or amiodorone and cardioversion if pulse present. |
fibrillation=? | Too fast to count |
normal heart rate =? | 60-100bpm |
what does T wave rep? | Ventricular repolarizaton |
what is meant by injury? | Acute damage to the tissue often from ischemia; elevated S-T segment |
AV Node | Back up pacemaker. intrinsic rate of 40-60 bpm |
What is duration of ST segment? | not elevated or depressed. |
http://www.ambulancetechnicianstudy.co.uk/images/Flutter.gif | Atrial flutter 250-350bpm Tx:O2, digoxin, cardioversion, beta blockers |
SA Node | Dominant pacemaker with intrinsic rate of 60-100 bpm |
