HEALTHSTREAM TELEMETRY & ECG EXAM 2023/2024 Mechanical & Electrical Activity - CORRECT ANSWER-- Correlation between the electrical and mechanical functions of the heart - Electrical activity stimulates the heart to contract - Electrocardiogram (ECG) show both functions - Electrical pulse= action potntial Cardiac Monitoring - CORRECT ANSWER-- Used to diagnose dysrhythmias, chamber enlargement, MI/myocardial ischemia, monitor effects of electrolyte imbalances of medication administrat...

CCT-CCI questions with correct answers On a cardiac rhythm strip, which of the following can determine if the patients heart rate is regular? The RR intervals being equal. The PP intervals being equal. The RR intervals being unequal. Both A and B Answer If the RR or PP intervals are not equal, then the rhythm is irregular. One of the most uncommon rhythms that is always unequal is atrial fibrillation. If the physician orders a treatment for a patient that is supposed to help prevent ...

dysrhythmia aka arrhythmia - Correct answer - abnormal cardiac rhythms which can cause disturbances of: rate, rhythm, or both rate and rhythm how are dysrhythmias identified? - Correct answer Electrographic Waveform Analysis (ECG) what controls the rate and rhythm of the heartbeat? - Correct answer the heart's electrical system explain the heart's electrical system - Correct answer Each electrical signal (impulse) begins in a group of cells called the sinus node or sinoatrial (SA...

CARDIAC HEALTHSTREAM TELEMETRY EXAM Q & A 2023/2024 Normal Conduction System - CORRECT ANSWER--SA Node = Primary Pacemaker of the Heart, rate of 60-100 bpm -Internodal Pathways = Pathways connecting SA Node and AV Node -AV Node = Backup pacemaker, rate of 40-60 bpm -Bundle of His = splits nerve fibers down Left & Right Sides, His-Purkinje is conduction system of heart -L & R Bundle Brancehs = lead to left & right of the myocardium -Purkinje Fibers / Network = ends of the muscle, last...

Nurs 5315: Adv Patho Exam 3 Set 1 | Latest Version | 2024/2025 | Graded A+ **Describe the flow of blood through the heart.** **Blood flows from the body into the heart through the vena cavas, enters the right atrium, passes through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle, exits via the pulmonic valve into the pulmonary artery, travels to the lungs, returns via the pulmonary veins to the left atrium, passes through the mitral valve into the left ventricle, exits via the aortic valve...

6 second method Count the number of P or R waves in a 6 second strip and multiply by 10 Which of the following atrial dysrhythmias is characterized by having no P waves but instead has abnormal atrial activity which obscures the isoelectric line, makes T waves indistinguishable, and can distort the QRS complexes? Atrial Flutter Atrial Flutter Which rhythm is this? atrial fibrillation Which rhythm is this? Supraventricular Tachycardia (SVT) whi
