year old person’s life,
their heart will have
beat how many
times?
How much does the
average heart weigh?

Which valve regulates blood
flow between the
Left Atrium and the
Left Ventricle?
What is the minimum amount
of points that may be
connected by electrical
leads to produce an EKG?
One small box on an EKG
recording represents how
many seconds?
What is the outer layer of
the heart wall called?
The double-layered
membrane that surrounds
your heart like a sac is
called what?
Which valve regulate blood
flow between the right atrium
and the right ventricle?
What is another name for
the Tricuspid Valve?
What is the heart’s
largest artery?
Name the two main
branches off of the
Left Coronary Artery
What is the chronic disease in
which thickening, hardening
and loss of elasticity of the
arterial walls results in
impaired blood circulation?
A constriction or
narrowing of a blood
vessel is called what?
What is the heart’s
natural pacemaker?
What is the His-Purkinje
System comprised of?
What is it called when blood
is pushed through the
tricuspid and mitral valves
into the resting lower
chambers?
If the Atria is pacing the
heart, what is the range
in heart beat?
What marks the end of the
P-wave?
SA node, AV node, His Bundle, Bundles Branches or
Purkinje Fibers?
Define the PR interval
What is the
‘Normal Range’ for the
PR interval?
What does the T-wave
represent on an EKG?
What is the nickname used
to describe a highly stenotic
left main coronary artery?
What is the name of the
middle layer of the heart
wall called?
Blood is supplied to the
heart by its own vascular
system, known as what?
If the His-Purkinje System is
beating the heart, what will
the heart rate range be?
How many electrodes
does a patient have on
during a 12-lead EKG?
Define the QT interval

Name IN DETAIL
ALL 7-steps to
EKG Interpretation
(tell me what is normal)
7 STEPS TO EKG INTERPRETATION
1. HR = (bpm)
2. Rhythm = regular vs. irregular
3. P-wave = present or not present (upright or upside-down)
4. PR Ratio = 1:1 Yes or No
5. PR Interval = Normal (.12 - .20 seconds) or Abnormal
6. QRS Complex = Normal (.04 - .12 seconds) or Abnormal
7. QT Interval = Normal (<.44 seconds) or Abnormal
