Objectives
• Discuss the anatomy of the heart
• Understand the components of an ECG
• Understand the following ECG’s
• Ventricular Rhythms
• AV Heart Blocks
• Pacemaker Rhythms
Cardiac Anatomy
• Myocardium
• Muscle of the heart
• Should contract when stimulated
• Atria
• Upper chambers of the heart
• Ventricles
• Lower chambers of the heart
Cardiac Anatomy
• Septum
• Separates left and right sides of atria and ventricles
• Cardiac Skeleton
• Separates the atria from the ventricles
• Impermeable to electricity
• Electrical conduction system
• Pathways through the heart for electricity
Electrical Conduction System
• Electricity created in Sinoatrial Node travels through
electrical system
• Myocardium contracts in response to stimulation
• Depolarization
• Change in cells electrical potential
• Muscle contracts in response
• Repolarization
• Cell resets to original electrical potential
• Muscle is relaxed
Electrical Conduction System
Electrical Conduction System
Electrical Conduction System
• Sinoatrial Node (SA Node)
• Pacemaker of the heart
• Sends electricity into atrium
• Bachmann’s Bundle (intra-atrial pathway)
• Delivers electricity to left atrium
• Atrioventricular node (AV Node)
• “Doorway” to ventricles
• Pauses electrical flow
Electrical Conduction System
Electrical Conduction System
• Bundle of His
• Splits in L/R bundle branches
• Connects AV node to Purkinje fibers
• Bundle branches
• Travel through ventricular septum
• Left bundle splits into anterior/posterior fascicle
• Purkinje fibers
• Disseminate electricity through the ventricles
Electrical Conduction System

• <.12 sec (3 small boxes wide)
• <.25 mv (2 ½ small boxes high)
ECG Pieces
• Q wave
• If it occurs, first negative deflection after the P wave
• Septal depolarization
• < .04 sec (1 box wide)
• < 1/3 total height of QRS
ECG Pieces
• R wave
• First positive deflection after the P wave
• Usually largest voltage on ECG
• Beginning phase of ventricular depolarization
• Entire QRS .04 - .12 sec (1 to 3 small boxes)
ECG Pieces
• S wave
• Return to baseline after R wave
• May be small or not present
• Late or ending of ventricular depolarization
ECG Pieces
• T wave
• Positive (usually) deflection after the QRS
• Ventricular repolarization

Applause!!!
Psst!
You want a few more???
Premature Atrial Conctraction
(P.A.C.)
• An early firing of atria, causes ventricles to contract
• Identified by:
• An early complex (irregular rhythm)
• P wave looks different than rhythm
• If it is really early P wave may be hidden in
previous T wave
Premature Atrial Contraction
(P.A.C.)
Premature Junctional
Contraction (P.J.C.)
• An early firing of the AV Junction, causes ventricles to
contract
• Identified by:
• An early complex (irregular rhythm)
• P wave irregularity
• Missing, inverted, retrograde
Premature Junctional
Contraction (P.J.C.)
Premature Ventricular
Contraction (P.V.C.)
• An early firing of a cell within the ventricle, causing it to
contract
• Identified by:
• An early complex (irregular rhythm)
• Wide, bizarre QRS that does not resemble others in
the rhythm
• 1 – Complex
• 2 – Couplet
• 3 – Is a “RUN” or “SALVO” (considered V tach)
Premature Ventricular
Contraction (P.V.C.)
P.V.C.’s – Part Deux!
• Bigeminy – Every OTHER beat is PVC
• Trigeminy – Every THIRD beat is PVC
• Quadrageminy – Every FOURTH beat is PVC
P.V.C.’s – Part Deux!
Ok, that’s really it….
