Dysrhythmia-Relias
1.normal sinus rhythm: heart rhythm originating in the sinoatrial node
2.Sinus Arrhythmia: Appearance is ALMOST NORMAL: Respiratory -
Circula Rate INCREASES with INSPIRATION (IN=IN)
3.Sinus Bradycardia:
<60 normal sinus rhythm
4.Sinus Tachycardia:
>100 (100150) normal sinus
rhythm
5.Premature Atrial Contraction (PAC): Heart Rate: Depends on
underlying rhythm
Regularity: Interrupts the regularity of underlying rhythm
P-Wave: can be 昀氀 attened, notched, or unusual. May be hidden
withinthe T PRI: measures between .12-.20 seconds and can be
prolonged; can be di 昀昀 erent from other complexes
QRS: <.12 seconds
6.Sinus Arrest/Pause: - SA node doesn't 昀椀 re
- notice absence of P-wave for a complete cycle (a missed cycle)
length of pause ` multiple of normal rate
(block) te
7.Atrial Fibrillation (A-Fib): an irregular and often very fast heart ra
from abnormal conduction in the atria 8.Atrial Flutter: irregular
lutter with
beating of the atria; often described as "a-f 1 block or 3 to 1 block"
9.Junctional Rhythm: 40-60 Regular!
-impulse from AV node w/ retro/antegrade transmission
- P wave often inverted/buried/follow QRS
