lengthens Phase 2
During exercise an increase in heart rate corresponds to a shortening of the cardiac cycle (RR interval decreases). Most of this shortening occurs in the TP interval. The QT interval also shortens, but only slightly. then the interval shortens as the heart rate increases.
That's 18 qt less 7 qt ie 11 qt = 2 gal 3 qt
Fill 5 qt pail. Then from full 5 qt fill 3 qt pail. You now have 2 qt left in 5 qt pail. Now empty 3 qt pail then put the 2qt from 5qt pail into this 3 qt pail. Now refill 5 qt pail Use this top off 3 qt till full this leaves you with 4 qts in 5 qt pail
17 gal 2 qt
5 qt 2pt
more potassium
The ECG of a patient with hypocalcemia will show q number of different distinct patterns. The ECG will show a T wave that is inverted and flattened, a prolongation of the QT interval, a narrowing of the QRS complex, a prolonged ST and ST depression, a reduction in the PR interval, and a prominent U wave.
400
It can prolong the cardiac action potential. It can also have other effects, such as torsades de pointes,and it can mask digitalis toxicity.
(QT/ RR^(1/3))*10
(QT/ RR^(1/3))*10
Use the Bazett's formula; which is the pt's QT intervaldivided by the square root of the RR interval. QTc should be less than 440msecs.
Hypocalcemia
During exercise an increase in heart rate corresponds to a shortening of the cardiac cycle (RR interval decreases). Most of this shortening occurs in the TP interval. The QT interval also shortens, but only slightly. then the interval shortens as the heart rate increases.
The QT of LQTS refers to an interval between two points (Q and T) on the common electrocardiogram (ECG, EKG) used to record the electrical activity of the heart.
Hypocalcemia can cause depression
This drug (a broad spectrum antibiotic) can change the QT interval and that can cause arrhythmia.
