Identifying normal sinus rhythm and common arrhythmias on a 12-lead EKG strip, one rhythm per card.
About this set
40 basic cards for EKG Technician Cardiology. Set 3 of 4 in EKG Technician. It opens with "EKG shows regular rhythm, rate 60-100, normal P wave before each QRS, PR" and "Regular rhythm at rate below 60 bpm with normal P waves and PR intervals". More Healthcare and Nursing decks are listed below.

- EKG shows regular rhythm, rate 60-100, normal P wave before each QRS, PR interval 0.12-0.20 seconds, QRS 0.06-0.10 seconds.
Show answer
Normal sinus rhythm- Regular rhythm at rate below 60 bpm with normal P waves and PR intervals.
Show answer
Sinus bradycardia- Regular rhythm at rate above 100 bpm with normal P waves and PR intervals.
Show answer
Sinus tachycardia- Irregular rhythm with no visible P waves, irregular baseline, ventricular rate typically 100-150 bpm.
Show answer
Atrial fibrillation- Regular ventricular rate with saw-tooth or flutter wave pattern between QRS complexes.
Show answer
Atrial flutter- Sudden onset of rapid rhythm (150-250 bpm) with narrow QRS complexes and regular intervals.
Show answer
Paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT)- Premature QRS complex with abnormal P wave preceding it, followed by normal sinus beat.
Show answer
Premature atrial contraction (PAC)- Premature wide QRS (greater than 0.12 seconds) with no preceding P wave.
Show answer
Premature ventricular contraction (PVC)- Rapid regular rhythm (150-250 bpm) with wide QRS complexes (greater than 0.12 seconds).
Show answer
Ventricular tachycardia- Completely chaotic baseline with no discernible P waves, QRS complexes, or T waves.
Show answer
Ventricular fibrillation- Rapid regular rhythm with visible abnormal P waves but normal QRS width.
Show answer
Atrial tachycardia- Rhythm originates in AV junction; P wave buried within or immediately after QRS complex.
Show answer
Junctional escape rhythm- PR interval consistently prolonged (greater than 0.20 seconds) but all P waves conduct to QRS.
Show answer
First-degree AV block- Progressive lengthening of PR interval until one P wave fails to conduct, then pattern repeats.
Show answer
Second-degree AV block Type I (Wenckebach)- Constant PR interval with occasional P waves that fail to conduct to ventricle.
Show answer
Second-degree AV block Type II
