Answer and Explanation 25

25.  D is the correct answer.  There is T wave inversion seen in the all of the lateral leads.  There is no evidence of the ST elevation in the lateral leads or the inferior leads so there is no evidence of an MI.  There is no evidence of inferior ischemia either.



Question 25

25.  Interpret the EKG Below:


A.  Inferior Wall MI

B.  Lateral Wall MI

C.  Inferior Wall Ischemia

D.  Lateral Wall Ischemia

Answer and Explanation 24

24.  B is the correct answer.  The PVC's are occurring every other beat which makes it bigeminy.  Trigeminy is every third beat.  The PVC's are uni-focal.  There is no evidence of PJC's



Question 24

24.  Please interpret the EKG below:


A.  Ventricular Trigeminy

B.  Ventricular Bigeminy

C.  Multi focal PVC's

D.  Premature Junctional Contractions

Answer and Explanation 23


23.  B is the correct answer.  This patient was in Ventricular Tachycardia and appears to have converted out of it.  SVT and A Fib with RVR are narrow complex tachycardias. A Fib is irregular in rhythm.  Pericarditis would have diffuse ST elevation.







Question 23

23.  Please interpret the EKG below:


A.  SVT

B. Ventricular Tachycardia

C.  A Fib with RVR

C.  Pericarditis


Answer and Explanation 22

22.  The correct answer is a Junctional Rhythm A.  There are no P waves seen which you would see in sinus bradycardia or normal sinus rhythm.
