  1. Figure 4-11 CPR Artifact

  2. Rhythm Without CPR Artifact • Following is the rhythm with CPR interrupted

  3. Figure 4-12 Rhythm Without CPR Artifact

  4. Defibrillation/Cardioversion Artifact • Caused by sudden electrical surge entering heart • Causes the rhythm pattern to shoot down/up before rhythm pattern resumes

  5. Figure 4-13 Defibrillation/cardioversion artifact.

  6. Artifact in Three Leads Monitored Simultaneously • Following is a strip with three leads recording the same rhythm • Leads I and II are limb leads and show a lot of artifact • V1 has less artifact and shows the true rhythm

  7. Figure 4-14 Artifact in Three Leads Monitored Simultaneously

  8. Figure 4-15 Is It Real or Is It Artifact?

  9. Artifact vs. Real Rhythm • How to tell the difference • Check the patient for symptoms • Check electrode wires and patches • See if “rhythm” meets its normal criteria • Check another lead • Observe for muscle twitches or movements that could cause artifact

  10. Classroom Response System

  11. Pop Question 1 The type of electrical shock associated with a pacemaker inside the body would be • Endoshock • Exoshock • Macroshock • Microshock

  13. Pop Question 2 Artifact is noted in leads I, II, and AVR. From which limb is the artifact likely arising? • Right leg • Left leg • Right arm • Left arm

  14. Pop Question 2 Answer Artifact is noted in leads I, II, and AVR. From which limb is the artifact likely arising? • Right leg • Left leg • Right arm • Left arm

  15. Pop Question 3 Mr. Johnson has Parkinson’s disease. What kind of artifact might you expect to see on his EKG tracing? • 60-cycle interference • CPR artifact • Defibrillation/cardioversion artifact • Somatic tremors artifact

  17. Pop Question 4 Sally has a cell phone, laptop, IV pump, cardiac monitor, and a fan on or by her hospital bed. What type of artifact might you expect to see? • Tooth brush tachycardia • Somatic tremors • CPR artifact • 60-cycle interference

  18. Pop Question 4 Answer Sally has a cell phone, laptop, IV pump, cardiac monitor, and a fan on or by her hospital bed. What type of artifact might you expect to see? • Tooth brush tachycardia • Somatic tremors • CPR artifact • 60-cycle interference

  19. Pop Question 5 Molly is in cardiac arrest. What types of artifact might you expect to see as a result of resuscitation efforts? • 60-cycle interference and CPR artifact • Baseline sway and defib/cardioversion artifact • CPR and defib/cardioversion artifact • Toothbrush tachycardia and broken recording
