Objective
Define the characteristics of atrial and ventricular arrhythmia. Relate the ECG features to the relevant physiological processes Develop reasoning skill that will enable you to explain some of the less commonly observed ECG abnormalitiesIdentify potential pathways of care for the person presenting with a variety of ECG changes.

QRS Complex
Normal QRS: less than 3 small boxes ( less than 0.12 seconds), Narrow QRS. Abnormal QRS: more than 3 small boxes (more than 0.12 seconds), Wide QRS.

Junctional Rhythm
Characteristics: Narrow QRS always. Absent of P wave, or Inverted P Wave, or Present P Wave but PR Interval less than 3 small boxes (less than 0.12 Seconds. Inverted P Wave comes after QRS.

Junctional Rhythm – Cont.
Absent Inverted
PR Interval less than 0.12 seconds Inverted after QRS

Types of Junctional Rhythms
Junctional •Heart Rate 40 – 60 Beat per minute.
Accelerated Junctional •Heart Rate 60 – 100 Beat per minute
Junctional Tachycardia •Heart Rate above 100 Beat per minute

Ventricular Dysrhythmia
Idioventricular Rhythms Ventricular Tachycardia. Ventricular fibrillation. Torsade's DE points
![Page 15: Atrial dysrhythmia](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022102901/55625c29d8b42a14048b4624/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Idioventricular RhythmsCharacteristics:
Wide QRS always. Absent of P wave always. Heart Rate 20 – 40 BPM

Ventricular Tachycardia
Always check pulse with this Rhythm
![Page 17: Atrial dysrhythmia](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022102901/55625c29d8b42a14048b4624/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Ventricular Fibrillation
Don’t Delay SHOCK Don’t waste the time for checking Pulse. Pulse always absent
