Ventricular standstill identifies a rhythmOften refers to a discernible pattern in time or distance between QRS complexes and/or P waves. with P wavesA wave generated from the depolarization of the atria; the P wave is upright when originating from the SA node. The P wave represents the depolarization of the right and left atria. The P wave begins with the first deviation... but without QRSThe electrical representation of ventricular depolarization; the atrial repolarization is also a part of the QRS. ECG interpretation relies heavily on the QRS complex. The QRS complex represents the depolarization of the ventricles. The repolarization of the atria is also... complexes. Blood flowThe purpose of the cardiac cycle is to effectively pump blood. The purpose of the cardiac cycle is to effectively pump blood. The right heart delivers deoxygenated blood to the lungs. Here oxygen is picked up and carbon dioxide is... ceases. A third degree AV block can precede ventricular standstill, with the ventricular pacing failing. Ventricular standstill may respond to transcutaneous or temporary pacing and rateHeart Rate; calculated by counting the number of QRS complexes in six seconds and multiplying by 10; rate is also determined by measuring the number of large squares between two R waves; i.e. –1 large square = heart rate of 300/minute. enhancing medications such as an epinephrine infusion. CPR will be required as these possible interventions are attempted i.e. treat issue, save brain.
