Faculty: Jerry W. Jones, M.D., F.A.C.E.P., F.A.A.E.M

Original Release Date: July 1, 2019  Expiration Date: July 1, 2022

TOPIC 1: 3rd Degree AV Block and AV Dissociation.

Upon completion of this session, the participant should be able to: COMP

  1. Distinguish a 3rd degree AV block from a simple AV dissociation.
  2. Discuss capture beats and fusion beats and demonstrate their utility in the diagnosis of AV dissociation and its differentiation from 3rd degree AV block.
  3. Relate the differences between a junctional escape pacemaker and a ventricular escape pacemaker.
  4. Illustrate the differences between a 3rd degree AV block in the AV node and one in the infranodal regions.

TOPIC 2: Inferior MIs and Posterolateral MIs.

Upon completion of this session, the participant should be able to: COMP

  1. Detect ST elevations indicating acute inferior epicardial ischemia
  2. List two other areas of the heart commonly affected when inferior epicardial ischemia is evident
  3. Distinguish between anterior subendocardial ischemia and posterolateral epicardial ischemia
  4. Recommend a preferred approach to a patient with chest pain and a non-diagnostic admission 12-lead ECG

TOPIC 3: Two Signs of Potentially Lethal Dysrhythmias and Two Signs of Potentially Lethal Heart Disease.

Upon completion of this session, the participant should be able to: GL, COMP

  1. Detect the ECG changes of Brugada Syndrome
  2. Detect changes suggestive of hyperkalemia
  3. Detect the changes of Wellens Syndrome
  4. Detect de Winter T wave changes and relate their importance
