I had a heart attack in my widow makernow my heart flip flops sometimesy and what is a flip wave ekg?
If you have had a heart attack and have flip waves in your EKG, it means your EKG is abnormal. Inverted waves are a sign that you have ischemia which means there is a decrease in O2.
How do nurses read heart beats using trigonometry?
Trigonometry helps nurses read the heart beats on an EKG because an EKG shows the heartbeats in a graph.
Will an EKG rule out a heart attack?
An EKG cannot rule out a heart attack. It gives a snap shot of the hearts electrical circuit at that moment. An EKG can show some changes indicative that there may be cardiac problems, as well as if you are actively having a particular type of heart attack (known as a STEMI).But you can be having a heart attack with no EKG changes. The definitive answer comes from blood work done at the hospital.
This 1904 invention by Dutch scientist Willem Einthoven allowed hospitals to check the heartbeats and look for signs of heart disease in patients?
electrocardiogram
How can an EKG be used in the diagnosis and treatment of heart disease?
An EKG shows the rhythm of the heart, the individual parts that are working, and can help detect heart abnormalities. For example, if something is abnormal with the P Wave, something may be wrong with the Atria. If something looks abnormal with the QRS complex, something may be wrong with the ventricles.
Can an EKG detect a murmur?
A murmur is heard by a clinician through a stethoscope and cannot be detected on EKG. However, an EKG reading may occasionally suggest a possible cause for the murmur. Most likely your clinician will be able to determine the cause of the murmur based on clinical grounds, or with the aid of an echocardiogram.
A friend tells you that her son had an ECG and it revealed that he has a slight heart murmur Should you be convinced that he has a heart murmur?
When doctors hear a murmur that might be abnormal, they order tests, such as: * Chest x ray. A chest x ray takes a picture of your heart and lungs. It can show if the heart is enlarged, and it can show some problems of the heart and lungs. * EKG or ECG (electrocardiogram). This test is used to measure the rate and regularity of your heartbeat. The EKG can help rule out a variety of heart problems.
I had a heart attack in my widow makernow my heart flip flops sometimesy and what is a flip wave ekg-?
There is nothing like flip wave ekg. Please rephrase your question.
What should I do with a kitten with a grade 4 or 5 heart murmur and what could happen to her?
I would keep taking her to the vet for reassessment every 3-4 weeks until she is at least 6 months old. Sometimes kittens have murmurs when they are young, but as they get older the murmur disappears or becomes much less severe. A Grade IV or V heart murmur is pretty serious - it's loud and generally means there is a functional problem with the heart. If it doesn't get better with age, I would suggest having a full cardiologic work-up done, including EKG and an ultrasound of the heart. This will give you a much better idea of what is causing the murmur and what the potential outcomes of the murmur are.
Baby heart murmur should you worry?
Heart murmurs can be serious however they can also be minor depending on past family history. If it's in your family, in that fact an cardiac history, it's possibly just a family gene problem. I would have your pediatrician take a look at your baby's heart, and have them do a non-invasive EKG to help determine the severity, but most murmurs aren't severe at this stage.
What does an artificial pacemaker look like on an EKG?
wandering baseline
What does a normal EKG look like and how can it be distinguished from abnormal readings?
A normal EKG shows a regular pattern of electrical activity in the heart, with specific waves and intervals. Abnormal readings may show irregularities such as abnormal wave shapes, intervals, or patterns. These abnormalities can indicate various heart conditions or issues.
What is ECG or EKG?
ECG and EKG are the same used to map the electrical activity of heart
What does EKG stands for?
Oh, dude, EKG stands for electrocardiogram. It's like a fancy way of saying, "Hey, let's check out your heart's electric activity!" So, next time someone says they need an EKG, just know they're checking to see if your heart's jamming to the right beat.
I had a heart attack in my widow makernow my heart flip flops sometimesy and what is a flip wave ekg?
If you have had a heart attack and have flip waves in your EKG, it means your EKG is abnormal. Inverted waves are a sign that you have ischemia which means there is a decrease in O2.
IF an EKG measures electrical signals then how does it record a mechanical process like CPR when there is no electrical signal in the heart?
An EKG measures the sinus rhythm of the heart. Doing CPR will not change the EKG readings. The AED will provide a shock for V-Tach & V-Fib to try to reset the heart so it will regain the normal sinus rhythm
What do the R and S waves show on the EKG?
The R and S waves on the EKG show how the heart is contracting and whether or not there is anything wrong with the beating of the heart or the structure of the heart.
