First Aid seems legit but do you have to know any of those obscure Arrythmias (PSVTs, PVCs, Junctional, escape beats, Accelerated IDV, pacemakers etc...)?

Unless I just couldn't find it, WPW syndrome seems like a HY EKG that's not in FA
I had a full fledge 12 lead ECG today. Super easy though, just had to determine basically if there was LVH. That was the only ECG I had on the entire test. Felt like I had barely any cardio.
Forgive my stupidity, but what do you look for? Just QRS widening?

Lol what? That's definitely not an average EKG that most people would know
I mean if I saw a gigantic I and V5-V6 (the other ones are usually huge too though) with LVH as an answer and no other problems...it wouldn't be too hard to figure out probably.
Heart sounds suck. Am I the only one who can't understand heart sounds at all unless I palpate the carotid?!
I know yall are focusing on Step I, but please for the love of god at the very least just memorize Dubins cold before residency.
what about specifics for arrythmia treatment, UW didnt really have questions like heres an EKG, what drug would be the best to use?
