_____degrees - ANSWERS-Lead I makes left arm POSITIVE and right arm
NEGATIVE. Its angle of orientation is 0 degrees
Lead II is created making legs _______and the left arm is ______, the angle
of orientation is ____degrees? - ANSWERS-Legs are POSITIVE and right
arm NEGATIVE. Angle of orientation is 60 degrees
Lead III is created making legs ______and left arm _____, angle is
_____degrees? - ANSWERS-Legs is POSITIVE and left arm is NEGATIVE,
angle is 120 degrees
Lead aVL created making left arm ______and other limbs _____, angle is -
_____? - ANSWERS-Left arm is POSITIVE and other limbs is NEGATIVE,
angle is -30 degrees
,Lead aVR is created making right arm _____ and other limbs _____, its angle
of orientation is -____degrees - ANSWERS-Right arm is POSITIVE and
other limbs NEGATIVE, angle of orientation is -150
Lead aVF is created making legs _____and other limbs ____, the angle of
orientation is ____ degrees toward the feet - ANSWERS-Legs POSITIVE
and other limbs NEGATIVE, angle of orientation is 90 degrees
V1 is placed ____-? - ANSWERS-4th intercostal space to the right of the
sternum
V2 is placed? - ANSWERS-4th intercostal space, left sternal border
V3 is placed where? - ANSWERS-Between V2 and V4
V4 is placed where? - ANSWERS-Fifth intercostal space at the
midclavicular line
V5 is placed where? - ANSWERS-Between V4 and V6
V6 is placed where? - ANSWERS-Fifth intercostal space, midaxillary line.
Treatment for bradycardia? - ANSWERS-Atropine 0.5mg IV
Sinus pause includes what two things? - ANSWERS-Sinus arrest and
sinoatrial exit block
Sinus pause is one or two missed beats
Sinus arrest? - ANSWERS-Failure of the SA node to create an impulse,
an interruption of R-R regularity
When 3 or more beats aren't formed
Sinoatrial exit block? - ANSWERS-SA node generates impulse but is
blocked before being transmitted through the atria (missed or dropped
beats)
R-R regularity continues with beats that follow the missed beat

Anterior wall
Changes associated with inferior wall myocardial infarction
QRS complexes
Ventricular function - ANSWERS-Changes associated with inferior wall
myocardial infarction

Do not prepare patient skin before applying leads
Reassure patient and maintain privacy
Turn on the monitor so the alarm sounds
Undress the patient and apply leads - ANSWERS-Reassure patient and
maintain privacy
Which of the following is an important electrolyte that affects cardiac
function?
Chloride
