| Which patients do we do ECGs for | Chest pain Collapse Palpitations Dizziness Shortness of breath |
| What is the systematic approach of interpreting an ECG | Patient details → Name/DOB Rate Rhythm Axis P wave P-R interval QRS interval Q-T interval T wave |
| On an ECG, what would atrial fibrillation look like | Absent p waves |
| What are some causes of atrial fibrillation | Electrolyte disturbance Valve disease Infection Ischaemic heart disease |
| What are some causes of left axis deviation | Left ventricular hypertrophy --> hypertension |
| What are some causes of right axis deviation | Right ventricular hypertrophy --> COPD etc. |
| If a person has left axis deviation, how would it show on a ECG | Lead I would be positive Lead II would be negative |

| In the 3 degrees of heart block, what happens to the PR intervals in each | 1st degree heart block --> prolonged PR intervals 2nd degree heart block --> eratic PR intervals, rate of P waves is regular but sometimes QRS complex does not pop up 3rd degree heart block --> no association between PR and QRS complex |
| What does this show>? | A ST depression which could be a sign of oxygen shortage --> angina |
