HEALTHSTREAM TELEMETRY & ECG EXAM 2023/2024 Mechanical & Electrical Activity - CORRECT ANSWER-- Correlation between the electrical and mechanical functions of the heart - Electrical activity stimulates the heart to contract - Electrocardiogram (ECG) show both functions - Electrical pulse= action potntial Cardiac Monitoring - CORRECT ANSWER-- Used to diagnose dysrhythmias, chamber enlargement, MI/myocardial ischemia, monitor effects of electrolyte imbalances of medication administrat...

Describe treatment of dysrhythmias correct answer: To determine if treatment is necessary, assess the patient. Then ask the following questions: Is he or she experiencing signs and symptoms of decreased cardiac output? Is the dysrhythmia potentially life threatening? If the answer to either of these questions is yes, the patient will need to treatment for the dysrhythmia. ***WE WILL DISCUSS TREATMENTS OF DYSRHYTHMIAS BASED UPON CURRENT ACLS TREATMENT ALGORITHMS CLINICAL MANIFESTATIONS ...
