Q

Pericarditis

A

ST segment elevation that is flattened
T wave elevated off baseline

present in all leads!! looks like an MI in all leads

PR depression

17
Q

pericardial effusion

A

QRS complexes in the same lead that are in opposite directions (heart is swinging back and forth in a bag of water)

18
Q

Paced rhythm

A 
sharp depolarizations (spikes) 
unable to interpret anything beyond its a paced rhythm

can be atrial (spike b4 P wave), ventricular (after P wave), or AV sequential pacers (spike before and after P wave- CHF)

19
Q

dextrocardia

A 
aVR is positive 
I= negative 
II= negative 
III= positive 
V1=largest 
V6=smallest
20
Q

brugada syndrome

A

ECG patter of RBBB and persistent ST elevation V1-3

abnormal QRS that looks like a saddle
