Aug 8th, 2018 - ANSWER The correct interpretation includes marked sinus bradycardia with sinus arrhythmia, biatrial enlargement, and an RSR’ pattern in lead V1 suggestive of right ventricular conduction delay. A heart rate below 60 beats/min is considered sinus b.

Jun 6th, 2018 - ANSWER The correct interpretation includes sinus bradycardia with marked sinus arrhythmia and junctional escape beats, and an intraventricular conduction delay. This type of ECG is not ideal for calculating the ventricular rate via the 30/150/100.

Mar 7th, 2018 - ANSWER The correct interpretation includes sinus bradycardia, marked sinus arrhythmia, junctional escape beats with sinus arrest or a transient atrioventricular (AV) block, and an intraventricular conduction defect. Sinus bradycardia is diagnosed.
