sinus rhythm<\/h1>\n


\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

First Glance:<\/strong><\/p>\n

From across the room it looks like a tiny little sinus rhythm.<\/p>\n

Discussion:<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is lead II, and everything about it looks normal if you take the 25% gain into consideration. The only thing I can say is the PR interval looks like its on the long side.<\/p>\n

Final Impression?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sinus rhythm @ ~95 bpm with borderline 1st degree AV block.<\/p>\n

Management implications:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Nothing in particular.<\/p>\n

The Take-home Point:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Unless you just told your patient a scary story, or the first year med student is putting in their first large bore IV, then 95 bpm is not really normal- especially at rest. So I wouldn’t call this ‘normal sinus rhythm’ personally. The books say it’s normal though.<\/p>\n

\"1purple_star\"<\/a>One star strip. Students should identify the rhythm correctly.<\/em><\/p>\n

no more strips.. check back in a month or two, or go see a random case (see links to right)<\/span><\/h1>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
