This review will help you to:
This review begins with a discussion of the physiology of cardiac conduction, the normal components of the ECG waveform, and the basics of how to interpret an ECG strip. Basic cardiac dysrhythmias including atrial, junctional, ventricular, AV blocks, and paced rhythms will be examined.
Once you have reviewed the content on these pages, complete the rhythm analysis and interpretation handout you were given. Return to the Nurse Educators by the specified date. Remember, this website is available at any time to review.
- Demonstrate proper electrode placement and maintenance
- Identify normal ECG waveform morphology
- Describe the normal physiology of cardiac conduction
- Distinguish between dysrhythmias
- Describe the physiological consequences and treatments of dysrhythmias
- Test your ability to analyze and interpret dysrhythmias
