        This was a real example of a case of fine ventricular fibrillation. In this case, it was extremely fine but nonetheless still ventricular fibrillation. In some cases differentiation between rhythms can be difficult. This is one of those cases.

      You can have first-degree heart block without having a heart rate less than 60 which would be considered bradycardia. The only qualification for first-degree heart block is that the The PR interval will be prolonged at > 0.2

    this one cannot be first degree av block as the PR interval is less than .2! hence , it must be sinus rhythm.

      The PR interval on the rhythm strip for question number five is 0.32 so this would fall within the parameter for first-degree AV block.

      Kind regards,

        The last question was also tagged as 1st degree block, #14. I had a hard time counting blocks at this res, but it looked borderline, although probably just over .2
