KAISER EKG TEST BANK QUESTIONS WITH
VERIFIED ANSWERS FULL REVIEW
●● ventricular repolarization is represented by
Answer: T wave
●● ventricular depolarization is represented by
Answer: qrs complex
●● to measure the QT interval you measure what
Answer: the initiation of the QRS to the end of T wave
●● where do you look on the ekg to see if there are abnormalities in
ventricular repolarization
Answer: QT interval
●● QT interval that is too long represents
Answer: delay in ventricular repolarization
●● if there is a a wide QRS complex what can we say about the bundles
Answer: there is a delay in one of the bundles
, ●● the ekg shape that looks like bunny ears
Answer: right bundle branch block
●● electrolyte abnormalities that may cause a long QT
Answer: hypokalemia
hypocalcemia
hypomagnesemia
●● When we must shock a pt for afib or tachy what is our emergency
intervention
Answer: synchronized cardioversion on the R wave
●● no SAD node firing for a big pause, then begins to fire again
resulting in no P wave during this event but the PR interval remains
normal
Answer: sinus pause or sinus arrest
●● long term tx for pt with afib or aflutter
Answer: blood thinners
●● this med may possibly cause a 1st degree heart block
Answer: dilitiazem
