Relias Dysrhythmia Basic Test Answers normal sinus rhythm heart rhythm originating in the sinoatrial node with a rate in patients at rest of 60 to 100 beats per minute Sinus Arrhythmia Appearance is ALMOST NORMAL: Respiratory – Circulatory interaction Rate INCREASES with INSPIRATION (IN=IN) Sinus Bradycardia <60 normal sinus rhythm Sinus Tachycardia >100 (100-150) normal sinus rhythm Premature Atrial Contraction (PAC) Heart Rate: Depends on underlying rhythm Regularity: Interrupts the re...

Pediatric ECG tip: In the absence of detectable pulses, this organized rhythm is one of the cardiac arrest rhythms—Pulseless electrical activity (PEA) (PEA). It is treated using the asystole/PEA portion of the PALS Pulseless Arrest algorithm. This particular rhythm may be described as an idioventricular escape rhythm (an escape rhythm originating from a slow ventricular pacemaker during periods of significant sinus bradycardia or high-grade AV block). It is characterized by wide QRS compl...

Medications for pulselessness (asystole, Vfib, PEA): - ANSWEREpinephrine, Amiodarone Medications for slow rhythms (sinus brady, junctional escape, idioventricular, blocks) - ANSWERAtropine, epinephrine infusion, dopamine Medications used for fast rhythms (Afib, Aflutter, SVT, junctional tachycardia): - ANSWERCardizem, Amiodarone, Digoxin, Betablockers, adenosine, lidocaine, Procainamide Inherent SA node rate - ANSWER60-100 The normal PR interval - ANSWER0.12-0.20 Time frame betwee...
