  1. Interpretation: Estimate from EKG Tracing
    1. Count Complexes in a 6 second strip
      1. Multiply complex count by 10
    2. Interval between complexes
      1. Count large boxes (0.2 seconds) between complexes
      2. Divide 300 by box count: 300, 150, 100, 75, 60, 50
        1. 1 large box (200 ms or 0.2 seconds): 300 bpm
        2. 2 large boxes (400 ms or 0.4 seconds): 150 bpm
        3. 3 large box (600 ms or 0.6 seconds): 100 bpm
        4. 4 large boxes (800 ms or 0.8 seconds): 75 bpm
        5. 5 large box (1000 ms or 1.0 seconds): 60 bpm
        6. 6 large boxes (1200 ms or 1.2 seconds): 50 bpm
        7. 7 large box (1400 ms or 1.4 seconds): 43 bpm
        8. 8 large boxes (1600 ms or 1.6 seconds): 37 bpm
  2. Interpretation: Intrinsic Rates
    1. Atria: 75
    2. AV Node: 60
    3. Ventricle: 40
  3. Interpretation
    1. Bradycardia: under 60
    2. Normal Sinus Rhythm: 60 to 100
    3. Narrow Complex Tachycardia
      1. Sinus Tachycardia: over 100
      2. Supraventricular Tachycardia
        1. Infants: over 220
        2. Children: over 180
        3. Adults: over 160
    4. Wide Complex Tachycardia
      1. Ventricular Tachycardia
