normal sinus rhythm (NSR) Criteria: (PR, QRS, QT, Rhythm: reg or irreg) 1 P-wave for Every QRS, REGULAR rhythm PR: 0.12-0.20 QRS: 0.06-0.10 BBB = > 0.12 QT: 0.36-0.44 BPM: 60-100 Sinus Bradycardia Criteria: (PR, QRS, QT, Rhythm: reg/irreg) PR: 0.12-0.20 QRS: 0.06-0.10 QT: 0.36-0.44 BPM: < 60 (Reg. rate) Tx: Atropine 0.5mg, Pace, Dopamine 2-10 mcg/kg/min, Epie 2-10 mcg/min Brainpower Read More Sinus Tachycardia Criteria: (PR, QRS, QT, Rhythm: reg/irreg) PR: 0.12-0.20 QRS: 0.06-0.10 QT: 0.36-0.44 BPM: 100-150 (Reg. rate, P wave may merge with T-wave) Cause: fear, anxiety, hypoxia, sepsis, hypovolemia, infection Sinus Arrhythmia Criteria: (PR, QRS, QT, Rhythm: reg/irreg) PR: 0.12-0.20 QRS: 0.06-0.10 QT: 0.36-0.44 BPM: HR increase w/ inspiration, HR decrease w/expirationP-P interval lengthen and shorten with respirations Irreg Rhythm NO TX Sinus Pause Criteria: (PR, QRS, QT, Rhythm) PR: 0.12-0.20 QRS: 0.06-0.10 QT: 0.36-0.44 Irregular rhythm Short Pause: no TX; Long/Freq. Pause & symptomatic = TX like Sinus Brady Premature Atrial Contraction (PAC) Heart Rate: Depends on underlying rhythm Regularity: Interrupts the regularity of underlying rhythm P-Wave: can be flattened, notched, or unusual. May be hidden within the T wave PRI: measures between .12-.20 seconds and can be prolonged; can be different from other complexes QRS: <.12 seconds TX: none, check Lytes, precursor for A-Fib/Flutter Atrial Fibrillation (A-Fib) (PR, QRS, QT, RHYTHM, TX) PR: Can't Measure NO P WAVE QRS: 0.06-0.10 QT: May/May Not be Measurable Rhythm: IRREGULARLY IRREGULAR Rate: Atrial >400 BPM Tx: Diltiazem (Cardizem), Amiodarone, Beta Blocker (Lopressor), Digoxin, Anti-Coag (Heparin), CardiovertAtrial Flutter (PR, QRS, QT, RHYTHM, TX) PR: Can't Measure NO P WAVE QRS: 0.06-0.10
