sinus rhythm regular rhythm Set by SA node at 60 to 100 bpm P waves normal normal qrs PR 0.12 - 0.2 normal qrs less than 0.10 wide qrs is greater than 0.12 Sinus Tachycardia 100-160 bpm SA node reduced time for ventricle filling assess for SOB or chest pain a prolonged QT interval more prone to arrhythmia NSR reflects the heart's normal electrical activity, providing synchrony between the atria and the ventricles. Sinus tachycardia occurs when the sinus no...

Which statement is correct regarding premature ventricular complexes (PVCs)? PVCs originate from the atrium. PVCs may be unifocal or multifocal in origin. PVCs will not lead to ventricular tachycardia. PVCs only originate from one site in the ventricles. PVCs may be unifocal or multifocal in origin. A regular rhythm at a rate of 40-60 beats per minute, with narrow QRS complexes, and no visible P waves, is consistent with the presence of: atrial fibrillation. sinus bradycardia. juncti...

Describe treatment of dysrhythmias correct answer: To determine if treatment is necessary, assess the patient. Then ask the following questions: Is he or she experiencing signs and symptoms of decreased cardiac output? Is the dysrhythmia potentially life threatening? If the answer to either of these questions is yes, the patient will need to treatment for the dysrhythmia. ***WE WILL DISCUSS TREATMENTS OF DYSRHYTHMIAS BASED UPON CURRENT ACLS TREATMENT ALGORITHMS CLINICAL MANIFESTATIONS ...
