that looks like 2 different things.
4 or more pvc's is considered "a run of vtach"
the other part would depend on the rhythm before the vtach...
ex. sinus tachycardia with a run of vtach

What is minute ventilation?
the amount of air breathed in 1 minute. Minute Ventilation = Tidal Volume x Respiratory Rate
Is 696 meters per minute the same as 2088 feet per minute?
No, it is 2,283.46 feet per minute.
How long does one heartbeat last?
It depends on the heart rate. For example: The normal resting heart rate for a person is 70 beats per minute. (60 seconds per minute) / (70 beats per minute) = 0.857 seconds
What is Chloropast?
A plastid containing chlorophyll, developed only in cells exposed to the light. Chloroplasts are minute flattened granules, usually occurring in great numbers in the cytoplasm near the cell wall, and consist of a colorless ground substance saturated with chlorophyll pigments. Under light of varying intensity they exhibit phototactic movements. In animals chloroplasts occur only in certain low forms.Read more: What_is_chloroplast
How many times do you breathe in a minute?
The average child breathes 20 to 30 times a minute at age 3, and 18 to 25 by age 6. An adult respiration rate will average 12 to 20 times in a minute.
If a person's heart rate is 72 beats per minute determine the number of QRS complexes that would have appeared on an ECG during the first 30 seconds?
36. A QRS complex is the ventricular contraction of the heart. There is one QRS complex per beat. So, since the person's heart rate is 72 bpm, divide it by 2.
How do you count ventricular rate of heart?
Place the stethoscope over the heart (left side of the chest) and count the heart beat for a full minute.
If a persons heart rate is 72 beats per minute what would be the qrs complexes that would appeared on the ekg during the first 30 seconds?
36
What time is sunset on April 20 2013?
Sunset is occurring somewhere every minute of every day.
How does a speedometer indicate wheteher or not accleration is occurring?
A speedometer does not indicate wether acceleration is occurring. It does, however, show instantaneous speed by calculating from the rotations per minute of the axle with the circumference of the tire.
Could you inform me about last minute vacations?
Last minute vacations is a term referring to vacations occurring almost immediately after the arrangements are made. If someone were to book a cruise departing tomorrow the would be getting a last minute vacation.
What is a ventricular tachycardia?
Ventricular tachycardia-- A rapid heart beat, usually over 100 beats per minute.
What are the ECG characteristics of Atrial flutter?
1- Inverted P waves (F waves) in II, III and AVF. 2- saw-tooth pattern between QRS complexes in II,III and AVF. 3- Atrial rate is 250-400 and regular but ventricular rate depends on AV node and between 60-150 and typically regular. 4- QRS is not wide 5- T waves not identifiable.
What is the difference between heart rate and ventricular rate?
On an ECG the heart rate will match both ventricular rate and atrial rate if the heart is normal. If people have atrial fibrilation then the ventricular rate will be used on the ECG to work out the rate of the ventricular contraction and vice-versa with ventricular fibrilation. Usually both atrial and ventricular rates match so if the atria contracts at 70 BPM the ventricles will beat at 70 BPM. It is possible for the ECG machine to work out atrial or ventricular rate if needs be. Usually, however, if the ECG machine just displays heart rate then both ventricular and atrial rates match.
What happens if heart beat is more than 100 in a minute?
not sure of the spelling but i think it ventricular tachycardia
What has the author A G Auld written?
A. G. Auld has written: 'On the minute changes occurring in vesicular emphysema' -- subject(s): Diseases, Lungs
When does behavior occur?
when two populations are capable of interbreeding but have differences in courtship rituals.
