COMPREHENSIVE ASSESSMENT SCRIPT
SOLVED QUESTIONS ANSWERS UPDATED
REVIEW SET
◉ Normal Etiology SA Node.
Answer: Firing of SA Node causing depolarization of Atria. The
impulse travels from SA node, through internodal pathways to AV
node, where it is delayed for short amount of time. (PRI)
◉ Tele Tracing QRS Complex.
Answer: Q-Wave = 1st Negative Deflection
R-Wave = 1st Postive Deflection
S-Wave= Negative Deflection following R-Wave
◉ Normal QRS Complex.
Answer: 0.08-0.12 sec (2-3 small squares)
Duration of this will lengthen when electrical activity takes a long
time to travel through the heart. Normal conduction, AV node -> His-
Purkinje system -> fast duration of this complex
, Consider BBB or Ventricular origin if higher
◉ Q-T interval.
Answer: 0.35 - 0.43 sec
◉ Heart rate.
Answer: bradycardia <60
Normal 60-100
tachycardia <100
◉ Tele tracing measurements.
Answer: HR
PR Interval
QRS Complex
Regularity
◉ Telemetry Interpretation.
Answer: 1. What is the Rate? (atrial, ventricular)
2. Is it Regular? (R to R)
3. Are there P waves? (PRl <0.20? Does every QRS complex have a P
wave?
4. Width of QRS complex?
