NYU EKG Test EXAM WITH CORRECT ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\




ANSWERS

most severe block is.... ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\




in left ventricle
||\\||\\ ||\\||\\




sympathetic NS ||\\||\\




fight or flight ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\




-SA node increases firing of impulses
||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\




parasympathetic NS ||\\||\\




rest and digest ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\




-vagal nerve ||\\||\\




2 types of cardiac cells
||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\




-electrical cells ||\\||\\




-myocardial cells ||\\||\\




electrical cells (characteristics) ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\




-automaticity
-excitability
-conductivity

automaticity

cell's ability to spontaneously generate impulses
||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\




excitability

cells ability to receive and respond to an impulse
||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\




conductivity

ability to receive impulse and send to someone else ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\




P wave
||\\||\\

, atrial depolarization ||\\||\\




-made by the SA node in atria ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\




QRS complex ||\\||\\




ventricular depolarization ||\\||\\




repolarization

relaxation
-chambers fill with blood ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\




-atrial and ventricular happen at the same time ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\




-we don't see a wave associated with atrial
||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\




T wave
||\\||\\




ventricular repolarization ||\\||\\




Impulse rates ||\\||\\




-SA node: 60-100 bpm ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\




-AV node: 40-60 bpm ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\




-purkinje fibers (ventricles): 20-40 bpm ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\




where is SA node found ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\




right atrium ||\\||\\




where are purknje fibers found ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\




ventricles

relative refractory period ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\




starts at the t wave ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\




-period after firing where other impulses can be noticed ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\




-a sudden change during this period on the t wave can put you in a fatal arrythmia
||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\




ECG graph paper ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\




-each box= 0.04 sec ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\




-5 boxes = 0.2 sec
||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\ ||\\||\\




placing leads ||\\||\\
