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
Usually the central and most visually obvious part of the EKG.
P Wave
PR Interval
QRS Complex
T Wave
Also known as the small box method.
300 Method
1500 Method
6 Second Strip
Paper Method
This wave is not seen if tachycardia is present.
U
Q
R
S
T
Negative waveform due to depolarization of the base of the ventricles
P
Q
R
S
The 300 Method is the most accurate way to get a heart rate on the EKG.
True
False
Corresponds to the depolarization of the right and left ventricles of the human heart.
P Wave
PR Interval
QT Interval
QRS Complex
The period, measured in milliseconds, that extends from the beginning of the P wave (the onset of atrial depolarization) until the beginning of the QRS complex.
P Wave
PR Interval
ST Segment
QRS Complex
A combination of a wave and a segment, or a wave, segment and a complex.
Event
QRS
PVC
Interval
Negative waveform due to the depolarization of the inter-ventricular septum.
P
Q
R
S
Seen as a result of the conduction impulses traveling from the AV node to the Bundle of His.
P Wave
PR Interval
PR Segment
ST Segment
Seen as a result of the repolarization of the ventricles.
P Wave
PR Interval
PR Segment
ST Segment
Signifies the duration of one cardiac cycle.
PR Segment
QRS Complex
R-R Interval
QT Interval
Common way to check for heart rhythm (regular or irregular).
12 Lead EKG
10 Lead EKG
Rhythm Strip
Pulse
How is Atrial Rhythm measured?
R-R Interval
PR Interval
P-P Interval
QT Interval
Used for irregular heart rhythms.
1500 Method
300 Method
