Question

Arrhythmia filtering rejects cardiac cycles:

a. that have an R-R interval outside the preset limits
b. that have too short S-T segment
c. that have too high QRS complex
d. all of the above
e. a and b only

Answer 1

Arrhythmia filtering rejects cardiac cycles that have an R-R interval outside the preset limits and that have too short S-T segments.

Step-by-step explanation:

An arrhythmia is a condition where the heartbeat is irregular, too fast, or too slow. Arrhythmia filtering is a process used to reject certain cardiac cycles based on specific criteria. In this case, the criteria are:

1. Cardiac cycles with an R-R interval outside the preset limits.
2. Cardiac cycles with a too short S-T segment.

Therefore, the correct answer is (e) a and b only.
