1. - Absent P-wave Atrial Fibrillation
- Irregular Pulse
- HR > 100-200 bpm
2. - Rapid HR Atrial Flutter
- 240-350 bpm w/ a saw tooth pattern
* Type I 240-350
* Type II >350
3. *Bizarre QRS. Premature Ventricular
-Sometimes looks like an upside down QRS Complexes (PVC)
4. - HR >100bpm Ventricular Tachycardia
- Large, wide, undulating waves
- P waves are not associated w/ the QRS complex
5. - Quivering and lack of effective contraction Ventricular Fibrillation
- ECG is rapid and erratic w/ no identifiable QRS com-
plex
6. - P - wave is normal 1st Degree Heart Block
- *** PR interval prolonged (>0.20 sec)
- QRS will be normal (0.06-0.10 sec)
7. - P wave is normal 2nd Degree Heart Block
- PR interval is progressively longer (>0.20 sec) (Type 1)
- ***QRS complex will usually be normal (0.06-0.10 sec)
UNTIL IT IS MISSED, then the cycle repeated
8. - P wave is normal *** can and often does outnumber 2nd Degree Heart Block
QRS complex (Type II)
