Why does the nurse monitor for dysrhythmias in the first 24 hours post-MI?

1. Dysrhythmias have no bearing on early MI outcomes
2. Reperfusion and ischaemia raise the risk of lethal arrhythmias
3. Significant arrhythmias only emerge several weeks after MI
4. Only sinus bradycardia is clinically relevant after MI
