Premature Atrial Contractions: ECG Interpretation for Nurses

Understanding what an ECG reading is and how to interpret it for clinical practice is an important nursing skill. Being able to identify normal sinus rhythm is the first step to recognizing abnormal rhythms.

In this lesson, we will discuss premature atrial contractions (PAC)

At the end of this lesson, you should be able to:

Identify physiological and nonphysiological factors that can result in a premature atrial contraction
Define the features of a premature atrial contraction
Compare and contrast premature atrial contractions to normal sinus rhythm
Discuss 4 different types of premature atrial contractions
Identify treatment options of premature atrial contractions

Nursing students, nurses, and other health care professionals benefit from learning these signs and symptoms as they are the frontline eyes of the healthcare system.

you're absolutely fantastic at explaining this. i really struggle to interpret 12 leads, which are usually taken when either symptomatic or new changes in anaesthetic recovery in my role. do you have strategies for reading 12 lead?
