Rhythm Analysis Flashcards
SA Node bpm
60-100
AV Junction bpm
40-60
Ventricle (Purkinje Network) bpm
20-40
Distance in time between 2 heavy vertical lines
.20 seconds
Distance in time between two light vertical lines
.04
Normal QRS
.04-.10
A QRS greater than .10 is called a
Bundle Branch Block
T wave that is inverted or biphasic may indicate
myocardial ischemia
Normal PR interval is between
.12-.20 seconds
A PR interval greater than .20 seconds is called a
1st degree AV Block
If an ST segment is elevated, it may indicate
myocardial injury
If an ST segment is depressed, it may indicate
myocardial ischemia
A normal QT interval is
.32-.40 seconds
Treatment for RSR or SA
None
Treatment for Sinus Bradycardia
Atropine or Transcutaneous Pacing (TCP)
