What is the best action for the nurse to take?
A client with a first degree heart block has an ECG taken during an episode of chest pain. The nurse knows that which ECG finding would be an indication of first degree heart block?
The nurse is assessing an ECG strip for a client. The P waves and QRS complexes are regular. The PR interval is 0.14 second and the QRS complexes measure is 0.08 second. The overall heart rate is 82 bpm. The nurse interprets the cardiac rhythm to be which rhythm?
The nurse is watching the cardiac monitor and notices that the rhythm suddenly changes. No P waves or QRS complexes are seen; instead, the monitor screen shows an irregular wavy line. The nurse interprets that the client is experiencing which rhythm?
- Sinus tachycardia
- Ventricular fibrillation
- Ventricular tachycardia
- Premature ventricular contractions (PVC)
- Ventricular fibrillation
- Vagus Nerve to decrease the heart rate
- Vagus Nerve to increase heart rate
- Diaphragmatic nerve to decrease heart rate
- Diaphragmatic nerve to overdrive the rhythm.
- Vagus nerve to decrease the heart rate.
- The QRS complex is present
- The PR interval is 0.24 second
- P wave precedes every QRS complex
- The ST segment is elevated
- P wave precedes every QRS complex
A client with rapid rate atrial fibrillation asks a nurse why the physician is going to perform a carotid massage. The nurse responds that this procedure may stimulate the...
The nurse is determining whether the client's rhythm strip demonstrates proper firing of the SA node. Which waveform indicates proper function of the SA node?
