The most serious of the four AV blocks is: - ANSWERThird Degree
An atrial arrhythmia that occurs when the pacemaker role switches from the SA
node to the atria and back again is called: - ANSWERWandering Pacemaker
First Degree Heart Block is caused by - ANSWERslow conduction through the AV
node
When you encounter a rhythm that is irregular with no mappable P waves you
should suspect: - ANSWERAtrial Fibrillation
In a Wenckebach, not every P wave is followed by a - ANSWERQRS complex
A basic rule for ventricular arrhythmia is that the QRS will be - ANSWER0.12 seconds
or greater
A rhythm that is regularly irregular would describe a rhythm that - ANSWERhas a
pattern to its irregularity
Which of the following is NOT true about the P wave in all junctional rhythms? -
ANSWERIt is unrelated to the QRS
Which of the following is the LEAST accurate way to determine a heart rate? -
ANSWERCount the number of QRS complexes in a 6 second strip and multiply by 10
AV dissociation is a feature of - ANSWERThird Degree Heart Block
If polarizing is considered the ready state, then __________ would be considered the
recovery state. - ANSWERRepolarization
The most important diagnostic feature for any of the AV blocks is - ANSWERPRI
The rhythm in which the atrial waves are seen as a sawtooth is called - ANSWERAtrial
Flutter
The presenting problem with sinus bradycardia is that - ANSWERthe rate is too slow
The vertical lines on the EKG graph paper measure - ANSWERTime
Which of the following is NOT true about multifocal PVC's? - ANSWERThey usually
look alike.
, The rate for sinus tachycardia is - ANSWERgreater than 100 bpm
The inherent rate of the AV junction is - ANSWER40-60 bpm
When PVC's appear in a pattern where every third beat is a PVC, the pattern is called
- ANSWERtrigeminy
A compensatory pause is a - ANSWERdelay following a PVC
It is very common for the P waves in atrial tachycardia to be - ANSWERhidden in the
T wave
Which of the following best describes the elements of a single cardiac cycle -
ANSWERP wave, PR segment, QRS complex, and T wave
The rate for an idioventricular rhythm is - ANSWER20-40
The QRS in Atrial Fibrillation should be - ANSWERLess than 0.12 seconds
The standard systematic approach to arrhythmia interpretation consists of all of the
following except - ANSWERrefractory periods
Which of the following is a feature of the Type II second degree heart block -
ANSWERThe PRI is consistent on conducted beats
In Wandering Pacemaker, the heart's pacemaker site shifts between - ANSWERthe
SA node and AV nodes
A strong impulse can cause a premature abnormal discharge during the -
ANSWERrelative refractory period
In type II second degree heart block with variable conduction, the R-R interval will -
ANSWERbe irregular
For sinus tachycardia the QRS complex should be less than - ANSWER0.12 seconds
In lead II the junctional impulse that depolarizes the atria is travelling away fromthe
positive electrod, thus producing a P wave that is - ANSWERinverted
A premature atria complex is - ANSWERa single ectopic beat
Part of the parasympathetic branch of the autonomic nervous system is -
ANSWERvagus
The cardiac activity that takes place about the ventricles is referred to as -
ANSWERsupraventricular activity
