Suggested uses for Basic ECG Rhythm Flashcards: 5-minute Icebreaker Activity Begin class with a 5-minute rhythm description or visual challenge. Separate the flashcards so that you are only using the description or rhythm cards.
Steps in Analyzing ECG'S. Rhythm: Regular _ “Sinus, Junctional or Ventricular”. - Irregular _ “Regular irregularity, or irregular irregularity”. Rate: Normal _ (60-100 BPM) - Bradycardia _ ( less than 50) - Tachycardia _ ( More than 100)
JUNCTIONAL RHYTHM. Rate: 40 - 60 BPM. Rhythm: Very Regular. P Waves: May occur before, during, or after the QRS; if visible, the P wave is inverted in leads II, III, and AVR. PR Interval: If a P wave occurs before the QRS, the PR interval will usually be 0.12 sec or less; if no P wave occurs before the QRS, there will be no PR interval
