Analysis of Heart Rhythm, Heart Rate, P wave, PR interval, QRS Complex - EKG |

[@allysathomas]

Thank you! This video was so helpful. I now have a much better understanding of ecg strips. Much better explanation than my teacher provided for the different methods for counting intervals and when we would want to use them.

[@LevelUpRN]

Appreciate you watching!

[@mishamc93]

These videos are so succinct and I like that you go back over things so it is easy to recall. Thank you !

[@LevelUpRN]

You are so welcome!

I love your videos. I watch other videos for clarification and when I need to know more in depth things but I always make sure to watch yours too and every time I get to them I feel light as a feather. I feel all my stress disappear. You have such a calming voice and are so thorough. You have helped me IMMENSELY throughout my nursing program - truly, I owe so much to you and your videos. Thank you for being so resourceful and helping students. You are ONE OF A KIND (trust me, i watch a lot of youtube videos hehe).

Thanks always for these videos. Please, do more dosage calculation problems. Thank you again

[@NathanPsprague]

You are the best Cathy! Thanks for helping me get through nursing school!

[@osmaneseler130]

Hii Cathy, first step before interpreting an ECG should be checking the name surname of the patient, date and normal scala spped 25 mm/s valtage 5 mm . Thanks for your excellent presentation.

[@SimranKaur-xv4pm]

Thank you so much for posting going to take EKG program soon and this helps a lot!!!

[@LevelUpRN]

Glad it was helpful!

You are so welcome!

[@constybee4079]

Hello, quick question, do you suction before oral care or the other way around for a drag and drop question?

[@BriBorgersen]

It's so difficult to actually visualize the tiny boxes when doing exams!!!

[@princessjazz5767]

this is so true

[@TheVolcom2310]

Great Video! You should definitely do an ACLS video.

[@bobbigal2012]

Thanks. pls why did you divide the no of boxes by 10?

[@jjestrada12]

Im having trouble with the inverted P wave. I see that it is inverted but how can we tell that that is the P wave and not the little bump next to it, the one right before the Q?

[@mykiast.pierre3023]

I have been watching these EKG videos and I’m trying find what a skipped or interval is. My fiancé is having heart palpitations and panic attacks regularly. She is curling up in balls and crying from chest pain. We have tried everything from hydrating, calming gummies, little to no caffeine intake, decrease in spicy or acidic foods. Her doctors aren’t pushing to help her like it’s not a big deal. I don’t know what to do. Please help 🙏

[@kraziikiim]

It could be due to anxiety or stress. Maybe she has premature atrial contractions or supraventricular tachycardia which aren't usually dangerous. She can visit a cardiologist and have them do a EKG if she's concerned. But as you said limit caffeine, stress, anxiety etc

[@DemonRose273]

Thank you for these videos! Does the 6 second method not work for regular rhythms?

[@LevelUpRN]

It does, but it is less accurate!

[@wenfaiwhwja8777]

What about short pr intervals?

[@stephaniek4403]

Hi! I think around 9:20 it stated that QRS complexes should be under 0.20 seconds or under 3 boxes in width. Aren't QRS complexes supposed to be under 0.12 seconds and PR intervals under 0.20 seconds?

[@allysathomas]

I think what was said was that qrs complex should be less than 0.12 seonds. You are correct. pr intervals: 0.12-0.2 seonds qrs complex: 0.04-0.12 seconds

[@stanliemurray5587]

I need some clarity please. I thought that if the rhythm is regular we can use the 300 method or 6 sec method to calculate the heart rate and if the rhythm is irregular we can only use the 1500 method or 6 sec method.

[@allysathomas]

The 1500 method would not work for irregular rhythms because the intervals are different lengths. 6 sec. method needs to be used for irregular since it measures qrs complexes rather than an individual interval. When measuring one interval using 300 or 1500 method, you are assuming all intervals are the same between r waves, that why it is accurate.. Technically, you could use 6 sec. method for regular rhythm but it is less accurate. Hope this helps.

[@mylynnwoods1565]

Why do you multiply by 10 Cathy?

[@BriBorgersen]

To bring it between 60-100 bpm
