#### EKG Interpretation Practice
The document represents a series of EKG strips numbered 37, 38, and 39. Each strip is accompanied by specific criteria for interpretation, including rhythm, rate, QRS complexes, P waves, P-R interval, and an interpretation field. Here is a detailed walkthrough of each EKG strip:
#### EKG Strip 37
- **Rhythm:** (Information not provided)
- **Rate:** (Information not provided)
- **P Waves:** (Information not provided)
- **QRS Complexes:** (Information not provided)
- **P-R Interval:** (Information not provided)
- **Interpretation:** (Information not provided)
#### EKG Strip 38
- **Rhythm:** Regular
- **Rate:** 34
- **P Waves:** None
- **QRS Complexes:** Narrow
- **P-R Interval:** None
- **Interpretation:** Junctional Brady
#### EKG Strip 39
- **Rhythm:** Irregular
- **Rate:** (Information not provided)
- **P Waves:** (Information not provided)
- **QRS Complexes:** (Information not provided)
- **P-R Interval:** (Information not provided)
- **Interpretation:** (Information not provided)
### Explanation of Terms
1. **Rhythm:** This refers to the regularity or pattern of the heartbeats.
- **Regular Rhythm:** Heartbeats occurring at regular intervals.
- **Irregular Rhythm:** Heartbeats occurring at irregular intervals.
2. **Rate:** The speed of the heart rhythm, typically expressed in beats per minute (bpm).
3. **P Waves:** These signify atrial depolarization. The presence or absence of P waves can indicate various types of heart activities or issues.
4. **QRS Complexes:** Represent ventricular depolarization. Their shape and duration can indicate normal or abnormal conduction through the ventricles.
- **Narrow QRS:** Indicates that the ventricular depolarization is occurring rapidly through the normal pathways.
5. **P-R Interval:** Time interval between the onset of atrial depolarization and the onset of ventricular depolarization.
6. **Interpretation:** The analysis and diagnosis based on the observed characteristics in the EKG strip.
### Graph Explanations
The EKG strips are graphical representations of electrical activity in the heart over time. Each small square on the
