The answer to question 1  Rhythm Ventricular rhythm is essentially regular.
Rate Ventricular rate 20 to 40 beats/min.
P waves Usually absent or, with retrograde conduction to the atria; may appear after the QRS (usually upright in the ST segment or T wave).
PR interval None.
QRS duration 0.12 seconds or greater; the T wave is frequently in the opposite direction of the QRS complex.

The answer to question 2  B
On the ECG, the absolute refractory period corresponds with the onset of the QRS complex to the peak of the T wave.

The answer to question 3  A
Anterior or lateral wall myocardial infarctions are most often a result of an occlusion of the left coronary artery.

The answer to question 4  Diastole

The answer to question 5  Rhythm Ventricular rhythm is essentially regular.
Rate 101 to 250 (121 to 250 per some cardiologists) beats/min.
P waves Usually not seen; if present, they have no set relationship with the QRS complexes that appear between them at a rate different from that of the VT.
PR interval None.
QRS duration 0.12 seconds or greater; often difficult to differentiate between the QRS and T wave.

The answer to question 6  B
Lead V3 views the anterior of the left ventricle.

The answer to question 7  D
Leads I, aVL, V5, and V6 view the lateral surface of the left ventricle.

:idea: All of these are right, thanks!
