What is a dysrhytmia?
an abnormal rhythm of any kind<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What are causes of bradycardia?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- hypothermia<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- hypothyroidism<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- cardiomyopathy<\/li>\n\n\n\n

- drugs
-digoxin
-beta blockers
-anti arrhymic medicine<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\nWhat is the intervention for a patient who is bradycardic but is not showing signs?
nothing, just keep monitor and assessing<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhat is the treatment for sinus bradycardia?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- o2<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- ivline<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- atropine<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- transcutanes pacer<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- dopamine\/epi<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Why is atropine given for sinus bradycardia?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- it increases the AV node which speeds up the ventricle contraction<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
What is the right way to administer atropine?
fast<\/p>\n\n\n\ntoo slow will cause the reverse effect of it<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How is dopamine or epi given for a patient with SB?
in a continous pump<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhat can be the cause of sinus tachycardia?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- infections<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- fever<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- hypoxia<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- shock

What are the characteristics that makes sinus arrhytmia different with sinus rhythm?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n

What is the difference between controlled and uncontrolled afib?
controlled is less then 100 and its uncontrolled if its greater than 100<\/p>\n\n\n\nT or F: Ventricular rate during a fib is regular
False, its irregular<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhat is the treatment for controlled afib?
anticoagulants<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhat is the treatment for uncontrolled afib?
beta blockers
