-Improvise cardiac defibrillator
-Implantable cardioverter defibrillator
-Ice cardiac slow-down correct answer: Implantable
cardioverter defibrillator
With the three lead cardiac monitoring system, where would the
black lead be placed?
-Right arm
-Left arm
-Left leg
-Right leg correct answer: Left arm
The right arm lead would be white
The right leg would be red\/brown and is the ground lead
The left arm lead would be black
The 3 stages of a one heart beat include all of the following
except?
-Atrial and ventricular repolarization
-Ventricular depolarization
-Atrial and ventricular fibrillation
-Atrial depolarization correct answer: Atrial and ventricular
fibrillation
The 3 stages include the atrial and ventricular depolarization and
the atrial and ventricular repolarization
Where would the precordial leads be placed on the patient?
-Legs
-Shoulders
-Arms
-Chest correct answer: Chest
The chest is where the precordial leads are placed. The
precordial leads are V1, V2, V3, V4, V5, and V6
Which of the following are the two things that distinguish atrial
fibrillation from other rhythms?
-No P waves
-Irregular rate
-Regular rate
-Both A and B correct answer: Both A and B
When a clinician is interpreting a rhythm, the first thing they
should consider if the rhythm is irregular is to check further for
atrial fibrillation. Atrial fibrillation is always irregular. Also
there are no P waves with atrial fibrillation
Which of the following is the classic sign for first degree heart
block, type 1?
-A rate of 120
-A PR interval that is prolonged
-A widened QRS
-No P waves are seen correct answer: A PR interval that is
prolonged
With first degree heart block, type 1, the PR interval is
prolonged. The PR interval is > 0.2 seconds
Which of the following cardiac leads will show an inferior wall
MI?
-II, III, aVF
-V1, V2, V3, and V4
-V1 and V2
-I, aVL, V5, and V6 correct answer: II, III, and aVF
V1, V2, V3, and V4 would be anterior wall MI
V1 AND V2 would be anteroseptal MI
I, aVL, V5, and V6 would be lateral wall MI
II, III, aVF would be inferior wall MI
Which of the following statements would be correct about the
heart?
-The heart is constantly pumping blood to different parts of the
body
-The heart intermittently pumps blood to different parts of the
body
-The heart is not a muscular organ of the body
-All of the above correct answer: The heart is constantly
pumping blood to different parts of the body.
The heart is a muscular organ. It constantly pumps blood to the
different parts of the body.The cardiac muscles are strong and
help to facilitate rhythmic contractions
When giving instructions to the patient in preparation for the
stress echocardiogram, the ECG technician should include all

-The patient will have to exercise on a treadmill\/supine bicycle
for about 6-10 minutes
-The patient will need to run approximately 100 yards
-The patient would need to disrobe from the waist up and be
provided a gown to wear
-Wear tennis shoes or comfortable walking shoes correct
answer: The patient will need to run approximately 100 yards
This exam compares both the resting and exercise ultrasound
images of the heart. Some of the instructions might include:
The patient will have to exercise on a treadmill\/supine bicycle
for about 6-10 minutes
The patient would need to disrobe from the waist up and
provided a gown to wear
Wear tennis shoes or comfortable walking shoes
Wear comfortable clothes to exercise in
Take medications as usual unless otherwise instructed<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
