16
Q

ECG findings Mobitz 1

A

PR intervals become progressively longer until a P wave and QRS complex is dropped

17
Q

ECG findings Mobitz 2

A

Consistently prolonged PR intervals randomly not followed by a QRS complex

18
Q

ECG findings 3rd degree AV block

A

P waves completely independent of QRS complexes

19
Q

ECG findings AFib

A

No P waves
Irregular and rapid QRS complexes

20
Q

ECG findings Aflutter

A

Regular sawtooth like atrial flutter between QRS complexes

21
Q

HASBLED score

A

Risk of major blees in AF patients on antiocoags

22
Q

CHADSVASC score

A

Stroke risk on AF patients-> need for anticoagulation

23
Q

2:1 block

A

2 p waves for every QRS complex

24
Q

ECG findings in RBBB

A

MaRRoW
V1: M shAPED QRS complex
V6: W shaped QRS COMPLEX

25
Q

ECG findings in LBBB

A

WiLLiaM
V1: W shaped QRS complex
V6: M shaped QRS compelx

26
Q

Pathophysiology of AVRT

A

Accessory pathway exists for impulse conduction-> not re-entry through AVN
WPW-Accessory pathway-bundle of kent-> excited ventricles earlier than typical pathway

27
Q

ECG findings WPW

A

Slurred delta waves
Short PR intervals
Wide QRS

28
Q

What is long QT syndrome

A

Ventricular tachyarrhythmia
Typically congenital
QT interval >480ms

29
Q

ECG findings Torsades de Pointes

A

Looks like ventricular tachycardia
QRS complexes twisting around the baseline
Height of QRS complex gets progressively smaller then large

30
Q

Ventricular fibrillation

A

Shapeless rapid oscillation on ECG

31
Q

What can Torsades de Pointes lead to?

A

Can terminate spontaneously or progress to ventricular tachycardia-> cardiac arrest

32
Q

Causes of prolonged QT

A

Long QT syndrome (inherited condition)
Medications: antipsychotics, flecainide, amiodarone
Electrolyte imbalances: hypokalaemia, hypocalcaemia

33
Q

ECG findings ventricular ectopics

A

Isolated random, abnormal broad QRS complexes on otherwise normal ECG

34
Q

ECG findings AVNRT

A

Retrograde P waves with prolonged PR interval

35
Q

ECG changes infective endocarditis

A

Long PR interval

36
Q

ECG changes pericarditis

A

PR depression
Saddle shaped ST elevation OR widespread ST elevation

37
Q

ECG changes pericardial effusion

A

Low voltage QRS complexes, electrical alternans

38
Q

ECG changes cardiac tamponade

A

Low voltage QRS complexes, electrical alternans
