Question

identify this rhythm

atrial flutter
sinus bradycardia with pacs
sinus tachycardia
sinus arrhythmia
sinus rhythm with pvcs

Explanation:

Analyze atrial activity

The baseline demonstrates a continuous, regular, rapid, and saw-tooth pattern of flutter waves (F-waves) instead of normal P-waves.

Evaluate ventricular rate and rhythm

The QRS complexes are narrow and occur at regular intervals, indicating a constant AV conduction ratio (approximately 4:1 block).

Determine the cardiac rhythm

The combination of a saw-tooth baseline (F-waves) and regular narrow QRS complexes is diagnostic of atrial flutter.

Answer:

• Atrial Flutter (Correct answer)
• Sinus Bradycardia with PAC's
• Sinus Tachycardia
• Sinus Arrhythmia
• Sinus Rhythm with PVC's
