Just a couple that I use: Sync (synchronize) the sick, defib (defibrillate) the dead Heart blocks - 1st degree, PR greater than .20 2nd degree, type 1 : prolong, prolong, drop, prolong, prolong drop (patterened lengthening of PR until a beat is missed) 2nd degree, type 2: conduct, nonconduct, conduct, nonconduct (no change is PR length but beat is missed - has P wave, but no QRS follows)
