How to calculate the heart rate from the electrocardiogram ?​
Masja [62]

Answer:

ECG paper is a grid where time is measured along the horizontal axis.

Each small square is 1 mm in length and represents 0.04 seconds.

Each larger square is 5 mm in length and represents 0.2 seconds.

Voltage is measured along the vertical axis.

10 mm is equal to 1mV in voltage.

The diagram below illustrates the configuration of ECG graph paper and where to measure the components of the ECG wave form

Heart rate can be easily calculated from the ECG strip:

When the rhythm is regular, the heart rate is 300 divided by the number of large squares between the QRS complexes.

For example, if there are 4 large squares between regular QRS complexes, the heart rate is 75 (300/4=75).

The second method can be used with an irregular rhythm to estimate the rate. Count the number of R waves in a 6 second strip and multiply by 10.

For example, if there are 7 R waves in a 6 second strip, the heart rate is 70 (7x10=70).

A 17-year-old male develops pneumonia, diabetic ketoacidosis, and metabolic acidosis. Respiratory compensation to a metabolic ac
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

The best answer from the choices, to the question: The cause of the hyperventilation is described by which of the following statement:___, would be, B: A decrease in the bicarbonate concentration stimulates ventilation.

Explanation:

The acid-base balance in the human body, is a very restrictive one. Normal ranges in this base are: 7.35 to 7.45. Whenever the values go either below 7.35 or above 7.45, we are talking about a person going into acidosis or alkalosis. Both situations are pretty serious and they have to do with the balance between the amounts of bicarbonate, and CO2 in the form of carbonic acid, in the blood. The normal ratio of bicarbonate to carbonic acid, is usually 20:1. Chemoreceptors, especially central ones in the neck, measure constantly that the balance is kept and if this is not the case, then several mechanisms will be put into place to recover it. One such measure is respiratory, and the other is metabolic. In the case of this 17-year-old, he has a pneumonia, which means that from the start, one of his recovery mechanisms is impeded, which is the respiratory mechanism of balance. He is also having metabolic problems with his system of compensation because his body is already producing high levels of H+ ions and not enough bicarbonate. Hyperventilation in this person is attempting to expel as much CO2 as possible, to try and restore the balance. The first thing that is sensed by the receptors is the changing in the 20:1 ratio, the increase in pH due to too much carbonic acid, and thus the body initiates the use of CO2 expulsion by the lungs, while metabolic mechanisms come into play.
