When preparing for the telemetry competency, remember to go back to basics. Analyze each rhythm in the same sequence. Step 1: Is the rhythm regular? Step 2: Calculate the heart rate Step 3: Are there P waves, is there one for each QRS, what is the PR interval? Step 4: Is there a QRS with each P wave, are they all the same? Step 5: Interpret, give the rhythm a name For each of the following 6 second rhythm strips, determine the rate, PR interval (PRI), QRS interval, interpretation and next course of action. Rate PRI: QRS Interpretation: Next course of action: Rate: PRI: QRS: Interpretation: Next course of action: Rate: PRI: QRS: Interpretation: Next course of action
