Question
question 5 of 20 what is the rhythm? select your answer. ventricular tachycardia (monomorphic) atrial flutter (aflutter) atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response (rvr) sinus tachycardia
Brief Explanations
- Analyze the ECG characteristics: In sinus tachycardia, the rhythm is regular, P - waves are present before each QRS complex, and the rate is usually between 100 - 180 beats per minute. In this ECG, the rhythm is regular, there are P - waves before each QRS complex, and the heart rate appears to be elevated but within the range of sinus tachycardia.
- Rule out other rhythms: Ventricular tachycardia has wide QRS complexes and no P - waves in a regular relationship with QRS. Atrial flutter has characteristic saw - tooth flutter waves. Atrial fibrillation with RVR has an irregularly irregular rhythm and no distinct P - waves.
