|
Normal Sinus Rhythm
|
Regular, 60-100 bpm, full cardiac cycle each time.
|
|
|
Sinus Bradycardia
|
Same as NSR, rate <60 bpm`
|
|
|
Sinus Tachycardia
|
Same as NSR, rate >100.
|
|
|
Atrial Fibrillation
|
Must be IRREGULAR, rate may vary, narrow QRS comples, P waves undetermineable due to fibrillating base line.
|
|
|
Atrial Flutter
|
Like A-Fib, but regular with "Flutter Waves" between QRS complex (Saw Tooth)
|
|
|
Sinus Arrhythmia
|
Like NSR, but slows and speeds up with respiration's.
|
|
|
Premature Atrial Contractions (PAC'S)
|
Full premature complex, including P-Wave.
|
|
|
Premature Junctional Contractions (PVC'S)
|
Premature complexes, P wave usually not present but may be present and inverted.
|
|
|
Supraventricular Tachycardia (SVT)
|
Rapid, regular rhythm, usually >160 bpm, IF start and or finish of SVT it witnessed it is called Paroxysmal Supraventricular Tachycardia (PSVT)
|
|
|
First Degree AV Block
|
Regular pattern with regularly long PR intervals.
|
|
|
Second Degree AV Block (Type 2)
|
Within Regular pattern, P wave occurs without proceeding QRS complex.
|
|
|
Third Degree AV Block
|
No Association between P waves and widened QRS complex.
|
|
|
Second Degree AV block (Type 1)
|
PR interval gets longer and longer until a QRS complex is dropped.
|
|
|
Ventricular Tachycardia (VT)
|
Wide, Rapid QRS complexes of equal amplitude, usually >120 bpm. P and T waves not present.
|
|
|
Torsades de Pointes
|
Like VT but amplitude varies in regular pattern.
|
|
|
Ventricular Fibriliation (V Fib)
|
Erratic baseline with no visible discernable pattern, pulseless.
