GRADED A+
◍ Which of the following is the QT interval duration?.
Answer: 0.44 secondsThe QT interval is measured from the beginning of the
Q wave to the end of the T wave. Each small box represents 0,04 seconds.
The QT interval in this tracing is 11 small boxes in duration, or 0.44
seconds.
◍ Which of the following is the PR interval duration?.
Answer: 0.18 secondsThe PR interval is measured from the beginning of the
P wave to the beginning of the QRS complex. Each small box represents
0.04 seconds. The PR interval in this tracing is 4.5 boxes in duration, or 0.18
seconds. Slight variations in measurement are possible based on where the P
wave and Q waves are interpreted as started, but this is a normal value and
small discrepancies can be noted.
◍ Heart rhythm pt. 9.
Answer: • An irregularly irregular rhythm varies without any consistency
throughout the tracing.
◍ Heart rhythm pt. 5.
Answer: Second, assess the shape and location of the P wave. This is not
associated with rhythm but is important in the overall interpretation of the
EKG. The P wave should have a consistent shape throughout the tracing, be
positively deflected, and occur before each QRS waveform. Following
review of the P wave configuration, measure the PR interval, then the QRS
duration.
, ◍ ATRIAL DEPOLARIZATION pt. 1.
Answer: The P wave relates to the atria and the QRS wave relates to the
ventricles.
◍ A junctional rhythm originates in the.
Answer: AV node
◍ What is the best interpretation.
Answer: NSR w/PACs
◍ What is the best interpretation.
Answer: SVT
◍ Referring to the EKG strip below, answer the following questions..
Answer:
◍ Heart rhythm pt. 1.
Answer: Several different methods exist to interpret the EKG. The
underlying rhythm can be interpreted as part of a five-step method. This
evaluation allows for compilation of information necessary to identify
arrhythmias.
◍ What is the best interpretation.
Answer: Sinus w/PJC
◍ What is the best interpretation.
Answer: Junctional 40-60bpm
◍ Heart rhythm pt. 4.
Answer: • The QRS waveform is representative of ventricular
depolarization. Irregular intervals in Q waves can represent ventricular
dysfunction.
◍ What is the best interpretation.
Answer: Sinus Tachy w/PJC
◍ All of the following are Junctional Rhythms.
Answer: Junctional (40-60 bpm)Junctional Brady (<40 bpm)Junctional Tach
