Cardiac rhythms may be classified as: - ANSWER Regular or irregular

When rhythms are irregular, or rates are either fast or slow, and ECG will identify the
origin of the beats to be what? - ANSWER Sinus node, AV node, Atrium, or
Ventricle and the conduction pattern

Normal range for sinus rhythm - ANSWER 60-100 bpm

If the rhythm is regular, - ANSWER Look at the rate
(>100 Fast, 60-90 Normal, or <60 Slow)

if rhythm is irregular - ANSWER note the pattern of irregularity
(sporadic, regularly irregular, or irregularly irregular)

Fast >100 rates - ANSWER Sinus Tachycardia
Supraventricular (atrial or nodal) Tachycardia
Atrial Flutter with a regular ventricular response
Ventricular Tachycardia

Normal 60-90 rates - ANSWER Normal sinus rhythm
Second degree AV block
Atrial Flutter with a regular ventricular response

Slow <60 rates - ANSWER Sinus Bradycardia
Second-Degree AV block
Complete Heart Block

100-180 bpm - ANSWER sinus tachycardia

150-250 bpm - ANSWER supraventricular (atrial or nodal) tachycardia

100-175 bpm - ANSWER Atrial Flutter with a regular ventricular response (fast)

60-90 bpm - ANSWER normal sinus rhythm (heart rate)

60-100 bpm - ANSWER Second- degree AV Block (normal)

75-100 bpm - ANSWER Atrial Flutter with a regular ventricular response (normal)

<60 bpm - ANSWER sinus bradycardia

30-60 bpm - ANSWER second-degree AV block (slow)
