1. Normal Sinus Rhythm
Rate: 60-100
2. Sinus Arrythmia
Any disturbance in rate, regularity, site or
origin or conduction
- breathing one
3. Sinus Bradycardia
Rate is just less than 60
4. Sinus Tachycardia
Everything normal
Rate is more than 100
5. Sinus pause/arrest
starts back up whenever
"accessory"
6. Sinus Block
Picks back up at perfect timing
"accessory"
7. sick sinus syndrome
- alternating brady and tachy
8. Premature Atrial Contraction (PAC)
9. Premature Junctional Contraction (PJC)

10. premature ventricular contraction (PVC)
11. Blocked Premature Atrial Contraction
12. R on T PVC
- PVC occurs on top of PVC
13. Wandering Arial Pacemaker (WAP)
- at least 3 different P wave morphologies
14. Paroxysmal abrupt starting and stopping
15. Supraventricular Anything above the ventricles
16. Absolute refractory period Ventricular cells have been excited and they
cannot depolarize again
17. Relative Refractory Period Cells are repolarized but not fully, they can
still depolarize but it will look funny
18. Junctional Tachycardia
- bunch of PJCs, >100 bpm
19. Supraventricular Tachycardia (SVT)
- over 100 bpm, narrow QRS, P wave hidden
20. Atrial Flutter (Aflutter)
- sawtooth, "pretty"
21. Atrial Fibrillation (AFib)
- no true P wave, irregular squiggles be-
tween QRS
