tachycardia and >100 bpm
bradycardia <60 bpm
every other complex is a PVC
Bigeminy
pattern in which every third
complex is a premature beat
Trigeminy
Rate: Normal or accelerated
P wave: inverted or absent
QRS: normal
Conduction: normal
rhythm: irregular: PICs occur
early in cycle of baseline
Premature Junctional
rhythm
Contraction (PJC)
-an ectopic pacemaker in the
AV Junction produces PJC's
-may occur in heatlhy or
diseased hearts
-if occasional, insignificant
, Heart Rate: Depends on
underlying rhythm
Regularity: Interrupts the
regularity of underlying rhythm
P-Wave: can be flattened,
Premature Atrial notched, or unusual. May be
Contraction (PAC) hidden within the T wave
PRI: measures between .12-.20
seconds and can be
prolonged; can be different
from other complexes
QRS: <.12 seconds
Wide an bizarre QRS complex, greater than 100
Characteristics of
beats per minute, absent P waves, no PRI, can be
Ventricular Tachycardia
monomorphic or polymorphic
SA node rate 60-100 bpm
AV node rate 40-60 bpm
Prukinje fiber rate 15-40bpm
regular rhythm, rate 60-100, p
Accelerated Junctional waves inverted or occur before
Rhythm during or after QRS, PRI
measured if p before QRS <0.12
AV blocks are identified as a delay or interruption of
the electrical impulse conduction beyond the AV
node. It is evaluated by measuring the PR interval in
AV Blocks
ECG traces. THE PR INTERVAL IS THE KEY OF
DIFFERENTIATION AND CLASSIFICATION OF THE
AV BLOCKS!
