A

aVL, V2, and V3

58
Q

bipolar leads

A

leads I, II, III

59
Q

unipolar leads

A

aVL, aVR, aVF

60
Q

is left or roight axis deviation more common

A

left axis deviation (Lead I up and aVF down)

61
Q

axis deviations for Lead I and aVF:

both up

A

normal

62
Q

axis deviations for Lead I and aVF:
I up and aVF down

A

left

63
Q

axis deviations for Lead I and aVF:

I down and aVF up

A

right

64
Q

axis deviations for Lead I and aVF:

both down

A

severe right… youre in trouble!

65
Q

if leads II, III, and aVF are negative its what issue

A

left hemiblock

66
Q

what leads should you look at for BBB

A

leads I, V1, and V6

67
Q

what block
wide QRS and R, S, R1 configuration in V1

A

RBBB

68
Q

what block: large wide R, S pattern in V1

A

LBBB

69
Q

what is seen in lead 1 for LBBB

A

positive deflection and wide

70
Q

what is usualy seen in V6 of LBBB

A

“bunny ears” but if not a notched QRS somewhere in V leads

71
Q

what block

A

RBBB check V1 should be negative deflectiopn

72
Q

what block

A

RBBB

check V1

73
Q

what block

A

LBBB

74
Q

what type of hemiblock is rare

A

left posterior hemiblock
- right axisd deviation
- normal QRS but widening

75
Q

negative deeflectionsin II, III, and aVF is a

A

left anterior hemiblock

76
Q

what block

A

left anterior hemiblokc (LAFB)

77
Q

what leads are best to view ventricular hypertrophy

A

V1, V2, and V5, V6

78
Q

other name for a LEft Anterior hemiblock

A

fasicular block

79
Q

how to determine if ventricular hypertrophy is present

A

add depth of s wave in V1 or V2 (whichever is deepest) to the height of the R wave in V5 or V6 (whichever is tallest)

> /= 35 mm is LVH

80
Q

what additional measurements may signify LVH on 12 lead ekg

A
  1. any precordial >/= 44 mm
  2. R wave of aVL >/= 11 mm
  3. R wave of LEad I >/= 12 mm
  4. R wave of lead aVF >/= 20 mm
  5. if precordial lead QRS complexes overlap its probably LVH)

Q

what is this

A

Left ventricular hypertrophy

82

A

anterior wall

83
Q

LAD changes seen in what leads

A

V1 to V4

84
Q

what rhythm

A

anterior wall MI

85
Q

lateral wall of heart supplied by

A

LAD or obtuse marginal
seen in I, aVL, V5 and V6

86
Q

what does this ekg show

A

lateral wall mi

87
Q

inferior wall supplied by

A

RCA

88
Q

inferior wall mi seen in what leads

A

II, III, aVF

89
Q

what does this ekg show and what blood supply is in trouble

A

inferior wall MI
RCA

90
Q

postrerior wall of heart blood supply from

A

PDA

91
Q

posterior wall mi seen as depression in what leads

A

V1 and V2

92
Q

ST depression signifies ______ and ST elevation signifies

A

ischemia

infarct

93
Q

in what leads is there ST depression

what part of heart is this

what supplies blood here

A

V4-V6

lateral

obtuse marignal

94
Q

Q waves are pathologic if:

A
  1. more than 1/3 total height of QRS
  2. wider than 0.03 sec (more significant)
95
Q

where are the ST elevations and what is the blood supply to this area

A

II, III, aVF

RCA

96
Q

what rhythm

A

atrial flutter

97
Q

what rhythm

A

AFib

98
Q

a couplet is

A

2 PVC in a row

99
Q

if you think you have an MI, which is better for perfursion

ephedrine
neosynephrine

A

neosynephrine

bc ephedrine is “weak epi” which will make heart squeeze harder and decrease o2 to brain

100
Q

do inferior wall MI need more or less fluids

A

more fluids

101
Q

what rhythm

A

RBBB in V1

102
Q

if you think youre having anterior wall mi should you give fluids or restrict fluids

A

restrict fluids because could cause congestive HF

103
Q

105
Q
