1. When providing transcutaneous pacing, the False
appearance of tall, broad T waves on the moni-
tor confirms that mechanical capture has been
achieved.
2. What parts of the heart's electrical conduction Bundle branches, Purkinje fibers,
system play a role in ventricular contraction? Bundle of His
3. Which types of arrhythmias are narrow-com- Atrial fibrillation, Atrial flutter, Sinus
plex tachyarrhythmias? tachycardia
4. What part of the ECG rhythm strip represents
repolarization of the ventricular myocardial
cells?
5. A 12-lead ECG shows ventricular tachycardia in
a stable patient with a pulse. The corrected QT
interval (QTc) is less than 0.46 second and the
patient is not taking any medications that pro-
long the QT interval. What medication should
be administered to this patient?
6. Examine the ECG strips. Which shows atrial flut-
ter?
7. What is the heart rate in sinus tachycardia?
8. In third-degree AV block, there is no electrical QRS complexes
communication between the atria and ventri-
cles, so there is no relationship between the P
waves and the _________.
