CARDIOVASCULAR NCLEX QUIZ QUESTIONS
Question 1: You begin your shift and assess an electrocardiogram rhythm strip. The P waves are upright; however, the rhythm is irregular with an ectopic beat. The PR interval is 0.14 seconds, and the QRS complexes are 0.10 seconds. The overall heart rate is 90 beats per minute. The nurse assesses the cardiac rhythm as:
A. Premature Atrial Complex
B. Premature Junctional Complex
C. Premature Ventricular Complex
D. Sinus Tachycardia
Question 2: You begin your shift and assess an electrocardiogram rhythm strip. The P waves are inverted; however, the rhythm is irregular with an ectopic beat. The PR interval is 0.10 seconds with ectopic beat, and the QRS complexes are 0.10 seconds. The overall heart rate is 90 beats per minute. The nurse assesses the cardiac rhythm as:
A. Premature Atrial Complex
B. Premature Junctional Complex
C. Premature Ventricular Complex
D. Sinus Tachycardia
Question 3: True or False: Trigeminy Premature Ventricular Complex is three uniform PVCs after one QRS.
Question 4: You begin your shift and assess an electrocardiogram rhythm strip. The P waves are upright when present; however, the rhythm is irregular with an ectopic beat. The QRS complexes are 0.18 seconds. The overall heart rate is 90 beats per minute. The nurse assesses the cardiac rhythm as:
A. Premature Atrial Complex
B. Premature Junctional Complex
C. Premature Ventricular Complex
D. Sinus Tachycardia
Question 5: True or False: Frequent PVCs in Acute Coronary Syndrome indicates the need for aggressive treatment with oxygen, nitroglycerin, and dilaudid.
