NSR rate = | 60-100bpm |
NSR rhythm = | Regular |
NRS P-wave = | upright, 1:1 w/ QRS, ID |
NRS QRS Complex = | <.12 sec |
NRS PRI = | .12 - .20sec |
Sinus Tachycardia Rate = | > 100bpm |
why would you have Sinus Tachycardia | exercise |
Sinus bradycardia Rate = | < 60bpm |
Why would you have Sinus bradycardia | sleeping, athletes |
Sinus Arrhythmia Rhythm = | Regularly irregular |
why would you have Sinus arrhythmia | breathing variation |
Sa node fired- no conduction of impulse | Sinus pause |
Sinus pause rhythm is | basically irregular |
what does a Sinus Pause look like | a dropped beat |
SA node fails to fire momentarily | Sinus Arrest |
Sinus Arrest rhythm is | basically irregular |
what does a Sinus Arrest look like | baseline wanders |
