34
Q

A

Positive
Negative
Positive

35
Q

The ___ wave represents atrial depolarization

A

P wave

36
Q

The _____ ______ represents the bridge between atrial and ventricle activation

A

PR interval

37
Q

Within the PR interval, name the electrical pathway (in order) from atrium to ventricles.

A

AV node
Bundle of His
Bundle branches
Ventricles (purkinje fibers)

38
Q

A conduction delay within the PR interval likely represents slow ___ node conduction

A

AV node

39
Q

What is the normal PR interval duration?

A

0.12-0.2 seconds

40
Q

What is the normal QRS duration?

A

0.06-0.1 seconds

41
Q

This represents ventricular depolarization on an ECG

A

QRS complex

42
Q

The ___ wave represents ventricular repolarization

A

T wave

43
Q

What is the Q wave? Why is it there? Why do we care? (Probably not a test question, but important to know and will help in understanding pathological Q waves)

A

Physiologic activation of the ventricles begins at the left side of the interventricular septum. These early septal depolarization forces are oriented anteriorly and to the right. As a result, small (<0.04 sec in duration) “septal” Q waves typically occur in the lateral precordial leads (which have a left-right spatial orientation) and in one or more of the limb leads (except aVR).
