EKG Introduction II

How many waves can be found on an EKG?

• 4

• 5

• 6

• 7

The junction between the termination of the QRS complex and the beginning of the ST segment.

• R point

• S point

• T point

• J point

A graph on which one or more particular lead is monitored to assess the rate and rhythm.

• 12 Lead EKG

• Holter Monitor

• Exercise Stress Test

• Rhythm Strip

The R--R Interval is also known as:

• Heart Rate

• Atrial Rhythm

• Ventricular Rhythm

• Pulse

This wave can be indicative of an electrolyte disturbance.

• J point

• QRS

• T Wave

• U Wave

Isoelectric line that falls between the end of the P wave and ends before the start of the Q wave.

• ST Segment

• PR Segment

• QT Interval

• PR Interval

What is the least accurate way to check a heart rate on an EKG strip?

• 1500 Method

• 300 Method

• 6 Second Method

• Paper Method

The first wave deflection seen on the isoelectric line.

• P Wave

• PR Interval

• QRS Complex

• T Wave

Represents the line from the end of the QRS complex to the start of the T Wave.

• J point

• S point

• ST Segment

• PR Segment

This wave is thought to represent the repolarization of the Purkinjie Fibers.

• R

• S

• T

• U
