Q

What are the characteristics of junctional rhythms?

A

Junctional rhythms are initiated within or near the AV node. Impulses travel upward causing backward or retrograde atrial depolarization. P waves may be absent, and those that are present will be inverted in Lead II, Lead III, and aVF and appear before, after, or during the QRS. The PR interval will be shortened if measurable.
