What was on Lisa rowe's arm in girl interrupted?
Lisa Rowe had burn marks on her arm in Girl Interrupted. It was actually of a cat named Ruby.

What is an interrupted baseline in the ECG?
An interrupted baseline in an ECG refers to an irregularity in the tracing that occurs when the baseline is not smooth and continuous due to various factors such as interference, patient movement, or improper lead placement. It can make the interpretation of the ECG difficult and may require correction or repositioning of the electrodes to obtain a clear recording.
What is baseline in ECG?
Baseline in an ECG refers to the flat line that represents the absence of electrical activity in the heart. It serves as a reference point for the peaks and valleys of the ECG waveform. Any deviation from the baseline may indicate abnormal electrical activity in the heart.
What is the greatest deflection from the baseline on the EKG?
The "R" is the greatest deflection from the baseline on the ECG. The R is part of the QRS complex. This complex represents ventricular depolarization in the heart.
If a ecg recording appears as a series of interruptions on the baseline the medical assistant should do what?
Consult the provider or physician.
When the ecg appears with the baseline rising and falling the medical assistant should?
When the ECG baseline appears to be rising and falling, the medical assistant should first check for patient movement or loose electrodes, as these can cause artifact. They should ensure that the electrodes are properly placed and securely attached to the patient's skin. If the issue persists, the assistant may need to recalibrate the ECG machine or consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation.
What is interrupted baseline?
An interrupted baseline is a research design used in single-subject experiments where a stable baseline phase is established before an intervention is introduced. This design allows researchers to observe changes in behavior or performance as the intervention is applied, compared to the baseline. The interruptions typically occur when the intervention is introduced or withdrawn, enabling the assessment of its effects on the subject's behavior over time. This method helps in determining causal relationships between the intervention and observed outcomes.
What term is used to describe the horizontal part of a tracing on an ECG and what does this line indicate?
The horizontal part of a tracing on an ECG is called the baseline. It represents the period when the heart is not actively depolarizing or repolarizing, showing the electrical activity at rest.
If you have an ECG conducted what causes the P wave?
oops
Possible causes of a poor ECG tracing?
Causes for poor ECG tracing can be from the patient moving or interferences from electrical appliances in the room: cell phones, a lamp plug in etc
What does a loose prong on ECG cause?
A loose prong on an ECG can cause poor electrical contact, leading to artifact or interference in the readings. This may result in inaccurate heart rate measurements, distorted waveforms, or a baseline wander, making it difficult to interpret the underlying cardiac activity. Proper electrode placement and secure connections are essential for obtaining reliable ECG results.
What artifact can be caused by poor quality electrolyte gel?
Poor quality electrolyte gel used for electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring can cause artifacts in the form of baseline drift, muscle noise, or interference patterns on the ECG tracing, leading to inaccurate readings and misinterpretation of the heart's electrical activity.
During the ecg recording the patient cough and start talking what type of artifacts would you expect to see?
During an ECG recording, if a patient coughs or starts talking, you may observe motion artifacts such as baseline wander or spikes in the ECG tracing. These artifacts can be caused by muscle contractions and movement, leading to irregularities in the waveform. Additionally, noise from the coughing or talking may interfere with the signal, potentially obscuring important cardiac information. It's essential to ensure patient comfort and minimize movement to obtain a clear and accurate ECG.
