Answer 1

Answer:

16. B) Sinus tachycardia

Reason: Increased heart rate >100bpm, normal P waves before QRS complex with regular rhythm.

17. D) Sinus arrest

Reason: Sinus activity paused result in skipping of beats.

18. B). Myocardial infarction, valvular problems, neurological influences

Reason: It conditions can change the heart rate and rhythm and causes dysrhythmias.

19. C) Ectopic

20. C) Trigeminy
