I was wondering if you could assist me with them. I would really appreciate your help on this. Thank you Kavya Kaushik. How to download? Please help me. I enjoy reading and help me to remember everything. Thank you so much. Help us spread the word! Matt Vera is a registered nurse with a bachelor of science in nursing since and is currently working as a full-time writer and editor for Nurseslabs. During his time as a student, he knows how frustrating it is to cram on difficult nursing topics.

Finding help online is nearly impossible. His situation drove his passion for helping student nurses by creating content and lectures that are easy to digest. Knowing how valuable nurses are in delivering quality healthcare but limited in number, he wants to educate and inspire nursing students. As a nurse educator since , his goal in Nurseslabs is to simplify the learning process, break down complicated topics, help motivate learners, and look for unique ways of assisting students in mastering core nursing concepts effectively.

Thank you Reply. Pls how can I download this? Much appreciated! Why is Mobitz II not included? Hello Hope you are doing well.

Thank you Kavya Kaushik Reply. Irregular atrial and ventricular rhythms. Normal P wave preceding each QRS complex. Normal variation of normal sinus rhythm in athletes, children, and the elderly. Can be seen in digoxin toxicity and inferior wall MI.

Atrial and ventricular rhythms are regular. Normal physiologic response to fever, exercise, anxiety, dehydration , or pain. May accompany shock, left-sided heart failure, cardiac tamponade, hyperthyroidism, and anemia. Atropine, epinephrine, quinidine, caffeine, nicotine, and alcohol use. Correction of underlying cause. Beta-adrenergic blockers or calcium channel blockers for symptomatic patients. Regular atrial and ventricular rhythms.

Normal in a well-conditioned heart e. Increased intracranial pressure; increased vagal tone due to straining during defecation, vomiting , intubation, mechanical ventilation. Follow ACLS protocol for administration of atropine for symptoms of low cardiac output, dizziness, weakness, altered LOC, or low blood pressure. Atrial and ventricular rhythms normal except for missing complex.

Pause not equal to multiple of the previous rhythm. Infection Coronary artery disease, degenerative heart disease, acute inferior wall MI.

Treat symptoms with atropine I. Temporary pacemaker or permanent pacemaker if considered for repeated episodes. Atrial and ventricular rhythms vary slightly. Irregular PR interval. QRS complexes uniform in shape but irregular in rhythm. Rheumatic carditis due to inflammation involving the SA node. Digoxin toxicity Sick sinus syndrome. No treatment if patient is asymptomatic Treatment of underlying cause if patient is symptomatic.

Premature, abnormal-looking P waves that differ in configuration from normal P waves. P wave often buried in the preceding T wave or identified in the preceding T wave. May prelude supraventricular tachycardia. Stimulants, hyperthyroidism, COPD, infection and other heart diseases. Usually no treatment is needed. Treatment of underlying cause if patient is symptomatic. Carotid sinus massage. P waves regular but aberrant; difficult to differentiate from preceding T wave.

P wave preceding each QRS complex. Physical exertion, emotion, stimulants, rheumatic heart diseases. Intrinsic abnormality of AV conduction system. Digoxin toxicity. Use of caffeine, marijuana, or central nervous system stimulants. If patient is unstable prepare for immediate cardioversion. Adenosine by rapid I. If patient has normal ejection fraction, consider calcium channel blockers, beta-adrenergic blocks or amiodarone. Atrial rhythm regular, rate, to bpm Ventricular rate variable, depending on degree of AV block Saw-tooth shape P wave configuration.

QRS complexes uniform in shape but often irregular in rate. Heart failure, tricuspid or mitral valve disease, pulmonary embolism, cor pulmonale, inferior wall MI, carditis. If patient is stable, drug therapy may include calcium channel blockers, beta-adrenergic blocks, or antiarrhythmics. Anticoagulation therapy may be necessary. Ventricular rhythm grossly irregular, rate to bpm. PR interval indiscernible. No P waves, or P waves that appear as erratic, irregular base-line fibrillatory waves.

Heart failure, COPD, thyrotoxicosis, constrictive pericarditis, ischemic heart disease, sepsis , pulmonary embolus , rheumatic heart disease, hypertension , mitral stenosis, atrial irritation, complication of coronary bypass or valve replacement surgery. If stable, drug therapy may include calcium channel blockers, beta-adrenergic blockers, digoxin, procainamide, quinidine, ibutilide, or amiodarone.

Anticoagulation therapy to prevent emboli. Dual chamber atrial pacing, implantable atrial pacemaker, or surgical maze procedure may also be used. Atrial rate 40 to 60 bpm. Ventricular rate usually 40 to 60 bpm. P waves preceding, hidden within absent , or after QRS complex; usually inverted if visible. Inferior wall MI, or ischemia, hypoxia, vagal stimulation, sick sinus syndrome. Acute rheumatic fever. Valve surgery Digoxin toxicity. Atropine for symptomatic slow rate Pacemaker insertion if patient is refractory to drugs Discontinuation of digoxin if appropriate.

Atrial and ventricular rhythms are irregular. P waves inverted; may precede be hidden within, or follow QRS complex. QRS complex configuration and duration normal. MI or ischemia Digoxin toxicity and excessive caffeine or amphetamine use.

QRS complex normal. Inferior wall MI or ischemia or infarction, hypothyroidism , hypokalemia, hyperkalemia. Use of quinidine, procainamide, beta-adrenergic blockers, calcium. Correction of the underlying cause. Possibly atropine if PR interval exceeds 0. Cautious use of digoxin, calcium channel blockers, and beta-adrenergic blockers. Atrial rhythm regular. Ventricular rhythm irregular. Atrial rate exceeds ventricular rate. PR interval progressively, but only slightly, longer with each cycle until QRS complex disappears.
