Answers
1. b. Sinus bradycardia. The rhythm is regular and the rate is 50/min. The P waves are paired with QRS complexes. The QRS complexes are narrow. No ectopic beats are seen. PR: .16 sec, QRS: .08 sec, QT: .44 sec. Interpretation: Sinus bradycardia
2. d. Supraventricular tachycardia. The rhythm is regular with a rate of 214mn. No P waves are seen. The QRS complexes are narrow so we know the rhythm comes from above the ventricles. No ectopic beats are seen. PR: ---, QRS: .08 sec, QT: .28 sec. Interpretation: Supraventricular tachycardia
3. d. Ventricular paced. The rhythm is regular with a rate of about 70/min. The P waves are paired with a QRS complex and are upright. The are pacer spikes before each QRS complex. No ecoptic beats are seen. PR: .12 sec, QRS: .16 sec, QT: .56 sec. Interpretation: Ventricular paced
4. b. Atrial flutter. The familiar "saw tooth" appearance identifies this rhythm as atrial flutter. The rhythm is regular with a ventricular rate of 70 and an atrial rate of 300/min. The flutter waves are seen in a 3:1 ratio to the QRS complexes. The QRS complexes are narrow and there is a tall T seen. Could be hyperkalemic. It would be a good reason to check a serum K level. PR: ---, QRS: .08 sec, QT: .36 sec. Interpretation: Atrial flutter.
5. c. Junctional rhythm. This rhythm looks regular. The heart rate is 50/min. No P waves are seen. The QRS complexes are narrow. These are characteristics of a junctional rhythm. PR: ---, QRS: .o8 sec, QT: .44 sec. Interpretation: Junctional rhythm.
