Denver II {Ans: Developmental Screening Tool developed by Clinitians to detect developmental problems up to age 6 with milestone achievements per age. 125 questions. 20-30 min total.}ECG {Ans: Records 2 basic events: depolarization, which is the spread of a stimulus through the heart muscle, and the repolarization, which is the return of the stimulated heart muscle to a resting state. P Wave-spread of a stimulus through the atria (atrial depolarization) PR interval-time from initial stimulation of the atria to initial stimulation of the ventricles usually 0.12-0.20 second QRS complex-the spread of a stimulus through the ventricles (ventricular depolarization), less than 0.12 second ST segment and T wave-the return of stimulated ventricular muscle to a resting state (ventricular repolarization) U wave-a small deflection rarely seen just after the T wave, thought to be related to repolarization of the Purkinje fibers. They are commonly seen with bradycardia. This is also seen sometimes with electrolyte abnormalities, hypothermia, and hypothyroidism. QT interval-the time elapsed from the onset of ventricular depolarization until the completion of ventricular repolarization. The interval varies with the cardiac rate.}Types of Shortness of Breath {Ans: Orthopnea - Difficulty Breathing While Lying Down Platypnea - Shortness of breath is
