Juntional & Heart Block Rhythms: Find your assigned question and strip. Assume strip is from lead II. Most strips are 6 seconds in duration. For the strip in question #5, see note about duration. For your question, answer the following items based on the associated strip.  State the interpretation of the rhythm and describe the characteristics listed below. State which, if any, characteristics cannot be determined. o Interpretation o Regularity: atrial and ventricular o Rate: state method used and rate (round to nearest whole number). If rhythm is irregular, state lower and upper range of the rate. o P wave o PR interval o QRS complex o QT interval o ST segment o T wave  For the identified rhythm; discuss possible causes, nursing implications, and potential management strategies. Question 1: Question 2: Question 3: Question 4: Question 5: Strip is LONGER than 6 seconds; therefore, do NOT use 6-second method to calculate rate.

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
