ELECTROCARDIOGRAM
“5” steps approach to arrhythmias
Step1: Is there a “QRS”
Step2: Is there a “P” Wave
Step3: What is the relationship between the
P waves and the QRS complexes?
Step4: Calculate rate
Step5:Miscellaneous

4)Calculating Heart
Rates
A Count the number of R waves in a
6-second strip and multiply by
10.(especially for irregular rhythm)
•Not very accurate
•Used only with very quick
estimate
A&E Vinayaka
B
Calculating Heart
Rates(cont..)
Count the number of large squares between
two consecutive R waves and 300 / Big squares
•Very quick
•Not very accurate with fast rates
•Used only with regular rhythms
A&E Vinayaka
C
Calculating Heart Rates
(cont..)
Count the number of small squares between
two consecutive R waves and or 1500 / small
squares.
.
•Most accurate
•Used only with regular rhythms
•Time consuming
A&E Vinayaka
Calculating Heart Rates
(cont..)
Count the number of BIG squares between
D two consecutive R waves in descending order
as 300,150,100,75,60,50...
•Not very accurate
•Used only with regular rhythms
•Time saving

Supraventricular
Tachycardia
• Narrow complex
• Regular Rate 140 to 220 / minute
A&E Vinayaka
A&E Vinayaka
VT
SVT with aberrancy
• Capture beat
• Fusion beat
• Concordance
• NO capture or fusion
beats
• Concordance leads will
not have the same
polarity
• Time required to
reach either the
peak of R wave / the
nadir of the S wave
> 0.07 second
• Time required to
reach either the
peak of R wave / the
nadir of the S wave
< 0.07 second

ECG Criteria
• Concordance
–All the ventricular complexes in
V1 –V6 is negative or positive
diagnosis – VT
–Concordant negativity – RVT
–Concordant positivity – LVT
