ECG Reading Simple Tips:

1.      Sinus Bradycardia – slow beat <60 beats per minute or slower

2.      Atrio ventricular Junctional Rythm or Idionodal rythm – 40 – 60 beats per minute,

absent or retrograde P wave

3.      Idioventricular rythm – 20-40 beats per minute

                      P waves generally absent, wide QRS (more than .12 msec or 3 small boxes wide)

4.      Sinoatrial exit block – failure of transmission from SA node to atrium

                     Absent P wave; equal R-R cycles, no QRS

 

AV BLOCKS

5.      First degree AV Block – prolonged P-R interval (about 5 small squares)

6.      Second degree AV Block Type I – progressive prolonged P-R interval then drop beat

7.      Second degree AV Block Type II – Normal then sudden drop, no prolongation of P-R

8.      Second degree AV Block 2:1 – 2 P waves and 1 QRS

9.      High grade AV Block – 3 P-waves and 1 QRS

10.  Third degree/Complete AV Block – P-waves and QRS has no association with each other, P-R interval varies

 

Emergency Notes:

 

If chest pain is

not

relieved by

Nitroglycerine:

 

Consider MONA

 

 

Morphine Sulfate

Oxygen at 4LPM

Nitroglycerine spray

Aspirin 160 – 325 mg
