A rhythm strip shows regular QRS complexes at a rate of 76 beats per minute, each preceded by an upright P wave with a consistent PR interval. How is this rhythm best described?
a.Ventricular fibrillation
b.Sinus bradycardia
c.Normal sinus rhythm
d.Asystole
Giải thích
Normal sinus rhythm is regular, between 60 and 100 beats per minute, with one upright P wave before every QRS and a constant PR interval, which matches the description. Sinus bradycardia would require a rate under 60. Ventricular fibrillation shows chaotic waveforms with no identifiable QRS, and asystole is a flat line with no electrical activity.
