ALL ECG (Interpretations, Rhythms, Differentials) Flashcards
Short PR interval
- Lown–Ganong–Levine syndrome (LGL) is a pre-excitation syndrome of the heart due to abnormal electrical communication between the atria and the ventricles.

SA nodal rhythm
P wave for every QRS, QRS for every P wave
Sinus rhythm
SA nodal rhythm
HR increases during inspiration
Sinus arrhythmia
SA nodal rhythms
>100bpm
Sinus tachycardia
SA nodal rhythms
dysfunction of sinus node: <60bpm
Sinus bradycardia
SA nodal rhythms
dysfunction of sinus node: P fails, next P where expected
