Modern ECG machines will present you with a computerized interpretation of the readout (‘the CI’). This computer diagnosis is frequently wrong (up to 20% of cases)! These errors can be critical, for example, many patients in sinus rhythm have been started on dangerous medications due to an erroneous computer diagnosis of atrial fibrillation.

Bradycardia 60 normal sinus rhythm Sinus Tachycardia 100 (100-150) normal sinus rhythm Premature Atrial Contraction (PAC) Heart Rate: Depends on underlying rhythm Regularity: Interrupts the regularity of underlying rhythm P-Wave: can be flattened, notched, or unusual. May be hidden within the T wave PRI: measures between .12-.20 seconds and can be prolonged; can be different from other complexes QRS: .12 seconds Sinus Arrest/Pause – SA node doesn’t fire – notice absence of P-wave for a…
