Question

the patient is placed on the heart monitor. what is her heart rhythm? choose the correct answer mobitz type i second - degree av block mobitz type ii second - degree av block atrial fibrillation sinus bradycardia

Explanation:

Mobitz type I second - degree AV block has a gradually prolonging PR interval until a P - wave is not conducted. Mobitz type II second - degree AV block has a constant PR interval with intermittent non - conducted P - waves. Atrial fibrillation shows an irregularly irregular rhythm with no discernible P - waves. Sinus bradycardia is a regular rhythm with a rate less than 60 beats per minute and normal P - waves. Without seeing the actual heart monitor tracing, we can't be certain, but these are the key characteristics of each rhythm for identification.

Answer:

No correct answer can be determined without seeing the heart monitor tracing.
