EKG

Question 1

interrupted baseline

Answer 1

beak in the tracing
related to disconnected or broken lead wire
flat horizontal line

Question 2

P wave

Answer 2

atrial depolarization

Question 3

QRS wave

Answer 3

ventricular depolarization

Question 4

AVF - Leg

Answer 4

L and R arm assist with L LEG tracing

Question 5

Ventricular tachycardia

Answer 5

regular’s fast rhythm characterizes by **large irregular QRS ** complexes if the EKG

Question 6

Unipolar Leads

Answer 6

recording of impulses that are poor illustration of wavelength needing assistance from two poles to enhance tracing
AVL, AVR, AVF

Question 7

somatic tremor

Answer 7

irregular spikes related to MUSCLE MOVEMENT

Question 8

AVR

Answer 8

L leg and L arm assist with R ARM tracing

Question 9

Bipolar Leads

Answer 9

impulses the travel from a negative to positive poles
Lead 1, 2, 3

Question 10

wandering baseline

Answer 10

movement associated with breathing and POOR ELECTRODE CONNECTION
baseline will wonder away from center of paper

Question 11

Lead 3

Answer 11

left side
records impulses between Left Arm and Left Leg

Question 12

T wave

Answer 12

ventricular repolarization

Question 13

Lead 1

Answer 13

both arms
records impulses between Right and Left arm

Question 14

p-r interval

Answer 14

beginning of atrial depolarization t beginning of ventricular depolarization

Question 15

qt interval

Answer 15

beginning of ventricular depolarization to end of ventricular repolarization

Question 16

Lead 2

Answer 16

diagonal across body
records impulses between Right Arm and Left Leg
clearest recording of the heart

Question 17

ac interference

Answer 17

POOR GROUNDING
computers, light, crossed wires possible interference

Question 18

AVL

Answer 18

L leg and R arm assist with L ARM tracing

Question 19

Sinus dysrhythmia

Answer 19

slight irregularly in the QRS complexes in an otherwise normal EKG
