Normal EKG tracing, but the heart rate is less than 60/min
Sinus Tachycardia
Sinus Dysrhythmia
Sinus Bradycardia
Sinus Arrest
A break in the normal EKG pattern, SA node fails to fire, longer than 6 seconds
Sinus Arrest
Atrial Flutter
Sinus Bradycardia
Junctional Escape Rhythm
no organized contraction of the atria, no P waves only normal QRS; blood clot formation (Stroke)
Atrial Fibrillation
Ventricular Fibrillation
SVT or Narrow Complex Tachycardia
Atrial Flutter
AV Junction is acting as the backup pacemaker. Absent or inverted P waves, Heart Rate does not exceed 60/min.
Junctional Tachycardia
Premature Junctional Complex (PJC)
Accelerated Junctional Rhythm
Junctional Escape Rhythm
Delay in conduction from SA to AV node PR interval is longer than 0.02 second
First Degree AV Block
Third Degree AV Block
Second Degree AV Block II
Second Degree AV Block I
Normal EKG tracing, but the heart rate is greater than 100/min. Normal during exercise.
Sinus Bradycardia
Sinus Dysrhythmia
Sinus Tachycardia
Sinus Arrest
P waves is present with no QRS complex or T wave. Complete heart block
First Degree AV Block
Second Degree AV Block II
Third Degree AV Block
Second Degree AV Block I
Three or more P waves greater than 100/min.
Junctional Tachycardia
Ventricular Dysrhythmia
Sinus Dysrhythmia
Ventricular Tachycardia
P wave could occur before, after, or be buried within the QRS complex causing irregularity in the rhythm
Third Degree AV Block
Premature Junctional Complex (PJC)
Junctional Tachycardia
Ventricular Fibrillation
Ventricles are not contracting but quivering, no cardiac output; not compatible with life
Ventricular Dysrhythmia
Accelerated Junctional Rhythm
Ventricular Fibrillation
Sinus Dysrhythmia
Slight irregularity in the rhythm, and often results from breathing patterns and variations in vital tones
SVT or Narrow Complex Tachycardia
Sinus Tachycardia
Sinus Dysrhythmia
Atrial Fibrillation
Same as the escape rhythm except that the rate is 60 to 100/min
Junctional Tachycardia
Accelerated Junctional Rhythm
Premature Junctional Complex (PJC)
More emergent and life threatening
Ventricular Dysrhythmia
Sinus Dysrhythmia
Electrical impulses that originated above the ventricles are blocked. Atria (Normal Rate) and ventricles (20 to 40/min) contract independently
Third Degree AV Block
First Degree AV Block
Second Degree AV Block I
Second Degree AV Block II
Same as Escape and Accelerated, but the heart rate is 100 to 150/min. Patient can feel the flutter
SVT or Narrow Complex Tachycardia
Atrial Flutter
Junctional Tachycardia
Impulse does come from any area above the ventricles, Heart Rate is 150/min; P wave is not visible
SVT or Narrow Complex Tachycardia
Atrial Flutter
Second Degree AV Block II
Atria is contracting at a rapid rate, 250 - 350/min much faster than the ventricles are contracting. No P wave only flutter waves with normal QRS complex
Atrial Fibrillation
Ventricular Fibrillation
Atrial Flutter
Block impulses from the AV nodes to the Ventricles, missing some QRS complexes
Second Degree AV Block II
First Degree AV Block
Third Degree AV Block
Second Degree AV Block I
