A dysrhythmia is a disturbance of the rhythm of the heart caused by a problem in the conduction system.
Categorized by site of origin: atrial , AV nodal, ventricular
Blocks are interruptions in impulse conduction: 1st, 2nd type 1&2, 3rd or complete heart block

Calculating Heart Rate Quick Estimate: The 6-second Method - count the # of QRS complexes in a 6 sec. length of strip & multiply by 10 (the second mark is = to 5 large boxes) This can be used is rhythm is reg or unreg.

FIRST DEGREE HEART BLOCK
Rate is usually WNLRhythm is regularPwaves are normal in size and shape The PR interval is prolonged (>0.20 sec) but constant

27SECOND DEGREE HEART BLOCK TYPE 1
Pwaves are normal in size and shape; Some pwaves are not followed by QRSPR interval: lengthens with each cycle until it appears without QRS Complex
then the cycle starts overQRS is usually narrow

Afib causes : Chocolate large amounts: contains
theobromine, a mild cardiac stimulant. - sleep apnea - athletes more prone (enlarged heart) - tall athletes (esp basketball players) - aging heart - men more than women - sleeping on left side or stomach etc.

A-fib treatment: ASA not as effective as Coumadin in
preventing strokes. ASA less likely to cause abnorm
bleeding **since hemorrhagic stroke increases
with age & is also increased by taking Coumadin, some Drs. may switch older pts from Coumadin to ASA.

A Fib electrical cardioversion: High risk of forming clots & causing
stroke Anticoagulants taken before treatment
and 3-4 weeks post treatment If life-threatening, may need Heparin IV
before cardioversion

Post cardioversion care: 1. generally the care for a patient tells
cardioversion is the same as for the fibrillation. 2. If it is a elective procedure, digoxin is usually
withheld for 48 hours prior to cardioversion to prevent dysrhythmias after the procedure.
3. Airway patency should be maintained and the patient state of consciousness should be evaluated.

new 5. No power generators (welding) 6. microwave questionable 7. radiotherapy (may damage circuits) The pacer may need to be surgically moved if in path of radiation field. 8.

EP with Ablation
An electrophysiology study is simply a study of the electrical function of your heart.

Bundle Branch Blocks: Diagnosed with 12 lead EKG: most common cause: acute MI
Right bundle branch block: - impulse travels through left ventricle
first, then activates right ventricle (gives am “M” shaped complex
Left bundle branch block: --impulse first depolarizes right side
of heart then the left ventricle (gives deep, wide “V” shaped complex

Primary Survey Airway: Open airway, look, listen, and
feel for breathing Breathing: If not breathing slowly give
2 rescue breaths. If breaths go in continue to next step.
Circulation: Check the carotid artery (Adult) for a pulse. If no pulse begin CPR.
Defibrillation: Search for and Shock V-Fib/Pulseless V-Tach

Adult ACLS Secondary Survey ABCDs (abbreviated)
Airway: Intubate if not breathing. Assess bilateral breath sounds for proper tube placement.
Breathing: Provide positive pressure ventilations with 100% O2.
Circulation: If no pulse continue CPR, obtain IV access, give proper medications.
Differential Diagnosis: Attempt to identify treatable causes for the problem.
