Telemetry questions with correct answers
Rule of 1500 Correct Answer-Calculate rate by counting the number of
small boxes between 2 consecutive beats and divide into 1500
8 small boxes: rate = Correct Answer-188
9 small boxes: rate = Correct Answer-167
11 small boxes: rate = Correct Answer-136
17 small boxes= rate Correct Answer-88
10 small boxes: rate = Correct Answer-150
Normal sinus rhythm (NSR) Correct Answer-Rhythm initiated in sinus
node and travels through the conduction system within normal times
frames
normal sinus rhythm (NSR) Correct Answer-
Sinus bradycardia Correct Answer-Rate is less than 60. Rhythm is
regular. P wave, PR interval, P:QRS ratio, and QRS are normal
Sinus bradycardia Correct Answer-
, Sinus tachycardia Correct Answer-Atrial and ventricular rate between
100 - 150. Rhythm is regular.
Sinus Tachycardia Correct Answer-
Sinus Arrhythmia Correct Answer-Irregular heart beat either too slow or
too fast
Sinus pause Correct Answer-Sinus node stops working for a period
resulting in at least one cardiac cycle missing. Atrial and ventricular rate
regular except for a pause.
Sinus pause Correct Answer-
Atrial Flutter Correct Answer-Single irritable focus in atria issues an
impulse that is conducted in a rapid, repetitive fashion. Atrial rate is
between 250- 350 per minute. Characterized by P wave "saw tooth"
pattern. Absence of baseline between P waves.
Atrial flutter Correct Answer-
Controlled to uncontrolled atrial fibrillation Correct Answer-Ventricular
response rate > 100 = uncontrolled. < 100 = controlled.
