Correct answers
- The PR interval is greater than 0.20 seconds
- The QRS complex is wider than 0.12 seconds
- It is polymorphic
- There is no organized rhythm — the rhythm represents a cardiac arrest
- There is no electronical activity or a heart rate less than 15 per minute
- The impulse originates in the ventricle and so is wide
- PR intervals that lengthen until a QRS complex is dropped, it has 'groups of beats'
- Consistent PR intervals, but not always conducted. There are more P waves than QRS complexes
- No two PR intervals are the same, the atrial rhythm is regular, the ventricular rhythm is regular but they have nothing to do with each other
