QUESTIONS WITH VERIFIED ANSWERS(100%
CORRECT ANSWERS) |ALREADY GRADED A+
If the ECG system does not allow the entry of patient information or if
there is no time due to an emergency which of the following would be
the proper procedure to record the information? - ANSWER✔✔Write it
on the completed ECG
Cardiac valves which have half-mooned shaped cusps would be
considered which of the following? - ANSWER✔✔Pulmonic valves
Semilunar valves would include the aortic and pulmonic. The
semilunar valves would be considered the valves that have cusps
which have half-mooned shapes.
When providing patient education, which of the following would not be
considered correct? - ANSWER✔✔Hand out the papers for the patient
to read, doesn't require review with the patient.
When providing patient education, the following would be considered
correct:
Use customized/printed out resources for education.
Hand out the papers for the patient to read, then review them with the
patient to ensure they understand the directions. Address any
individualized needs of the patient. Answer questions which the
patient might have.
,All patient information must be entered or written accurately no
matter the circumstances. If the technician is unable to enter the
information into the machine for any reason they should be sure to
write the information on the completed ECG for future reference.
Which of the following should the technician do prior to starting an
ECG exam? - ANSWER✔✔All of the above
The technician should perform the following prior to an ECG exam:
Review the physician's orders and the patient's medical history
Make the patient as comfortable as possible
Explain the exam and what to expect to the patient
Once these steps are complete the technician can place the
electrodes and continue with the ECG exam.
Which of the following would be considered the receiving chambers of
the heart? - ANSWER✔✔Left atrium
There are 2 chambers of the heart that would be considered receiving
chambers:
Left atrium
Right atrium
Of the following, which would not be indicative of ventricular
fibrillation? - ANSWER✔✔Waves would be seen with every other
complex
, The following would be indicative of ventricular fibrillation:
No waves will be seen
The QRS will be more than 120ms
The rate will be 100-250
The patient will lose consciousness
If a premature ventricular contraction (PVC) comes from different foci,
they are referred to as which of the following? - ANSWER✔✔Multifocal
PVC's
If the PVC's come from different foci, they would be referred to as
multifocal PVC's.If the PVC's come from a common point or focus and
appear the same shape, they would be considered unifocal PVC's.

If they suspect the patient has premature ventricular contraction,
which of the following would the nurse look for on the ECG strip? -
ANSWER✔✔Irregular rhythm and premature QRS complexes that are
wide and uncommon
If they suspect the patient has premature ventricular contraction the
nurse would look for an irregular rhythm and premature QRS
complexes that are wide and uncommon on the ECG strip. This
condition can also cause a loss of atrial kick and reduce ventricular
filling time causing a problem with cardiac output.
Which of the following would be considered the approximate O2
saturation of the blood in the right atrium? - ANSWER✔✔60-75%
