Heart Blocks
Match the heart block to the correct name:
1st degree
2nd degree (Wenckebach or Mobitz Type I)
2nd degree (Mobitz Type II)
3rd degree (Complete heart block)
Match the strip to the correct electrolyte imbalance:

Heart Blocks
answer
key
Match the heart block to the correct name:
1st degree
If the R is far from the p, than you have First degree
2nd degree (Wenckebach or Mobitz Type I)
P waves get longer, longer, & DROP, its a case of WENCKEBACH
2nd degree (Mobitz Type II)
If some R’s don’t get through, prepare to pace that Mobitz II
3rd degree (Complete heart block)
If P’s & Q’s don't agree, than you have a Third Degree
Match the strip to the correct electrolyte imbalance:

Hypokalemia
hypokalemia think Low (flattened or inversion)
Hypocalcemia
QT prolongation
Hypercalcemia
Shortened ST segment
Hyperkalemia
hyperkalemia think high (peaked)
Hypomagnesemia

Dear future nurse,
You may be stressed, you may feel tired,
and you may want to give up. Nursing school is
hard, there's no doubt about it. Everyone cries,
everyone has meltdowns, and there will be
moments you don't feel qualified for the task at
hand. But take heart, the challenge only makes
you stronger. Put in the work, show up on time,
and find an amazing study group. You got this!
