Repolarization ST wave Abnormalities
Precise guide for Allied Health Science Students especially cardiac specialty students, DGNM, B.Sc Nursing & M.Sc Nursing Students regarding Repolarization ST wave Abnormalities.
Biatrial enlargement is diagnosed when criteria for both right and left atrial enlargement are present on the same ECG.
The diagnosis of biatrial enlargement requires criteria for LAE and RAE to be met in either lead II, lead V1 or a combination of leads.

How to read ECG systematically with practice strips Khaled AlKhodari
This lecture simplifies the steps of reading ECG systematically. It starts with a simple heart anatomy and the logical steps that should be followed to perfect ECG reading without missing any abnormality. Finally, there are some practice ECG strips that include but not only MI, STEMI, Wellens syndrome, Pulmonary embolism, LVH, arrhythmias... and others

Acetabularia Information For Class 9 .docxvaibhavrinwa19
Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
10. EKG Distributions

deflection
Sensitivity: 10 mm = 1 mV
Paper speed: 25 mm per second
Each large (5 mm) square = 0.2 s
Each small (1 mm) square = 0.04 s
Heart rate = 1500/RR interval (mm) (i.e. 300 ÷
number of large squares between beats)

HR of 60-100 per minute is normal
HR > 100 = tachycardia

When rate is irregular, count the
number of R in 30 large square and
multiply by 10 to get HR.

Elevation = Acute infarction
Depression = Ischemia
Can manifest as T wave changes
Remote ischemia shown by q waves
51. ST segment
ST depression
◦ Downsloping or horizontal = abnormal
◦ Ischaemia (coronary stenosis)
◦ If lateral (V4-V6), consider LVH with ‘strain’ or digoxin
(reverse tick sign)
ST elevation
◦ Infarction (coronary occlusion)
◦ Pericarditis (widespread)
These are usually in ‘territories’ eg. anterior/lateral/inferior
etc. and will be present in contiguous leads
53. What do you see in this EKG?
ST depression II, III, aVF, V3-V6 = ischemia
54. How to read a 12-lead ECG:
examination sequence
Rhythm strip (lead II) - To determine heart rate and rhythm
Cardiac axis - Normal if QRS complexes +ve in leads I and II
P-wave shape - Tall P waves denote right atrial enlargement
(P pulmonale) and notched P waves denote left atrial
enlargement (P mitrale)
PR interval - Normal = 0.12-0.20 secs. Prolongation denotes
impaired AV nodal conduction. A short PR interval occurs in
Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome
QRS duration - If > 0.12 secs then ventricular conduction is
abnormal (left or right bundle branch block)
55. QRS amplitude - Large QRS complexes occur in slim
young patients and in patients with left ventricular
hypertrophy
Q waves - May signify previous myocardial infarction (MI)
ST segment - ST elevation may signify MI, pericarditis or
left ventricular aneurysm; ST depression may signify
myocardial ischaemia or infarction)
T waves - T-wave inversion has many causes, including
myocardial ischaemia or infarction, and electrolyte
disturbances
QT interval - Normal < 0.42 secs. QT prolongation may
occur with congenital long QT syndrome, low K+
, Mg2+
or
Ca2+
, and some drugs
67. Left Bundle Branch Block
Monophasic R wave in I and V6, QRS > 0.12 sec
Loss of R wave in precordial leads
QRS T wave discordance I, V1, V6
Consider cardiac ischemia if a new finding
68. Right Bundle Branch Block
V1: RSR prime pattern with inverted T wave
V6: Wide deep slurred S wave
69. First Degree Heart Block, Mobitz Type I (Wenckebach)
PR progressively lengthens until QRS drops
71. Right Ventricular Myocardial Infarction
Found in 1/3 of patients with inferior MI
Increased morbidity and mortality
ST elevation in V4-V6 of Right-sided EKG
