9 sie 2024 · Use this EKG interpretation cheat sheet that summarizes all heart arrhythmias in an easy-to-understand fashion. One of the most useful and commonly used diagnostic tools is electrocardiography (EKG) which measures the heart’s electrical activity as waveforms.
This animated video complements our cheat sheet with EKG strips by providing a visual and auditory learning experience. Learn about each rhythm, watch demonstrations, and listen to expert explanations to solidify your understanding.
BASIC ECG INTERPRETATION – RST WORKSHEET #5 Instructions: Calculate the Atrial Rate*, Ventricular Rate*, PR interval, QRS width, and Interpretation for each strip. *Calculate the Atrial and Ventricular Rate using either the 1500 method, countdown method or 6 second method 1. Rhythm: Atrial: Ventricular:
To download and print them in full color, go to: 6th Ed. 1. RATE (pages 65-96) 2. RHYTHM (pages 97-202) Identify the basic rhythm, then scan tracing for prematurity, pauses, irregularity, and abnormal waves. Check for: P before each QRS. QRS after each P. Check: PR intervals (for AV Blocks). QRS interval (for BBB).
The electrocardiogram (ECG) is a tool for recording and interpreting cardiac activity through repeated cardiac cycles. NSR is the default, healthy cardiac rhythm. The electrical impulse originates from the sinoatrial (SA) node and the ECG strip will demonstrate the following characteristics:
To calculate the rate of a regular ECG, simply divide 300 by the number of large squares between two complexes. For irregular rhythms, count the number of complexes between 30 large squares and multiply by 10 (30 large squares = 6 seconds, assuming standard paper speed of 25 mm/s).
