Advanced ECG’s for MLA’s Cathie Cousins, RN, BScN, CCN(C)

Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C) Objectives 1. To review Basic Concepts for the 12-Lead ECG To discuss the following on the 12-Lead ECG 2. Bradycardia 3. Tachycardia 4. Ventricular Ectopy 5. ST and T wave changes 6. Pacemakers May 13, 2006 Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C)

Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C) 1. Basic Concepts The heart is a pump with an electrical conduction system 2 basic types of cardiac cells in the heart Myocardial cells or “muscle” cells Specialized cells of the conduction system or “pacemaker” cells May 13, 2006 Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C)

Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C) May 13, 2006 Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C)

Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C) May 13, 2006 Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C)

Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C) May 13, 2006 Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C)

Electrical Axes and Vectors Each of the 12 leads on the ECG has a different pattern because each lead views the hearts electrical axis from a different position Atrial and ventricular depolarization and repolarization generate an electric current known as an electrical axis or vector (different from the axis of a lead) May 13, 2006 Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C)

Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C) Average of all the ventricular vectors points to the left and downward Knowing the electrical axis of the heart enables us to determine the normal pattern of each lead and the cause for altered patterns in each lead May 13, 2006 Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C)

Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C) May 13, 2006 Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C)

Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C) Rate Both the atrial and ventricular rates should be measured May 13, 2006 Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C)

The Grid Method for Rate Uses the distance between 2 sequential complexes on the ECG Each small square represents 0.04 seconds - 1500 small squares in 1 minute - 300 large squares in 1 minute Count the large squares between P waves for atrial rate and R waves for ventricular rate 300 ÷ number of large squares = number of beats/min May 13, 2006 Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C)

Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C) Quick Tips 300 ÷ 5 large squares = 60 bpm 5 or > large squares per minute = Bradycardia 300 ÷ 3 large squares = 100 bpm 3 or > large squares per minute = Tachycardia ÷ May 13, 2006 Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C)

Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C) 2. Bradycardia Bradycardia is a heart rate < 60/min Bradycardia can be due a slow sinus rate, the origin of the rhythm or an AV block: - Sinus Bradycardia - Junctional Rhythm - Idioventricular Rhythm - 2° AV Block Type I - 2° AV Block Type II - 3° AV Block May 13, 2006 Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C)

Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C) May 13, 2006 Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C)

Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C) Sinus Bradycardia Sinus node is pacing at a rate < 60/min P wave, QRS normal May 13, 2006 Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C)

Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C) Junctional Rhythm Sinus node and atria fail to pace the heart. AV junction paces at → 40-60/min No P wave or PR interval < 0.12, QRS normal May 13, 2006 Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C)

Idioventricular Rhythm Sinus node, atria, and AV junction fail to pace. Ectopic pacemaker in the ventricles paces at → 20-40/min No P wave, QRS wide, ST & T waves often abnormal May 13, 2006 Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C)

Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C) AV Blocks 2° Type I and 2°Type II AV Blocks, sinus node paces the heart Not ever P wave results in QRS, QRS normal or wide May 13, 2006 Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C)

Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C) 3° AV Block, sinus node paces the heart P waves do not result in QRS AV junction paces, QRS normal Ventricles pace, QRS wide May 13, 2006 Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C)

Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C) 3. Tachycardia Tachycardia is a heart rate > 100/min Tachycardia can be due to: - Sinus Tachycardia - Supraventricular Tachycardia - Ventricular Tachycardia May 13, 2006 Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C)

Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C) May 13, 2006 Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C)

Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C) Sinus Tachycardia Sinus node is pacing at a rate > 100/min P wave, QRS normal May 13, 2006 Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C)

Superventricular Tachycardia Ectopic focus in atria or AV junction paces the heart or Abnormal conduction thru AV node or Accessory pathway P wave or no P wave, QRS narrow or wide, rate > 150/min May 13, 2006 Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C)

Ventricular Tachycardia Ectopic pacemaker in ventricles paces the heart No P wave, QRS wide and bizarre May 13, 2006 Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C)

4. Premature Ventricular Contractions QRS Duration QRS duration - depolarization of right and left ventricles, from the endocardium to epicardium Normal QRS duration - 0.06-0.10 sec QRS duration > 0.10 sec, a conduction delay exists in the bundle branches, Purkinjie network or ventricular myocardium, or ventricular ectopic conduction exists May 13, 2006 Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C)

Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C) PVC’s, premature ventricular complexes: the premature beat originates in an ectopic focus in one ventricle, it depolarizes that ventricle, then the other No P wave, QRS wide & bizarre, ST often abnormal, T wave often opposite the rhythm Multifocal PVC’s come from more than one ectopic focus, each foci has a different shape May 13, 2006 Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C)

Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C) 1 PVC = a PVC 2 PVC’s = couplet 3 PVC’s = triplet 4 PVC’s = ventricular tachycardia Every 2nd PVC = bigeminy Every 3rd PVC = trigeminy Bigeminy or trigeminy can refer to any ectopic beat so clarify - eg. bigeminal PVC’s or bigeminal PAC’s, etc. May 13, 2006 Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C)

The 3 Functions of Pacing 1. Sensing – the ability of the pacemaker to recognize the patient’s intrinsic heartbeat 2. Pacing – the pacemaker produces a stimulus either when the sensing circuit does not detect an intrinsic heartbeat or at a predetermined time interval 3. Capturing – the depolarization of the myocardium in response to pacing May 13, 2006 Cathie Cousins,RN BScN CCN(C)
