Sinus rhythm Sinus rhythm. A sinus rhythm is any cardiac rhythm where depolarisation of the cardiac muscle begins at the sinus node. It is characterised by the presence of correctly oriented P waves on the electrocardiogram (ECG). Sinus rhythm is necessary, but not sufficient, for normal electrical activity within the heart.

Current Chapter 10-Heart Disease There are only slight differences between these arrhythmias. slide 1 of 5. About Arrhythmias An arrhythmia is an abnormal heart beat. Two groups of arrhythmia are bradycardia and tachycardia. Bradycardia is a heart rate slower than 60 beats per minute (bpm). Tachycardia is a heart rate faster than 100 bpm. Two forms of tachycardia are sinus tachycardia and supraventricular tachycardia. There is little difference between supraventricular tachycardia and sinus tachycardia.

Sick Sinus Syndrome The disorders that characterize SSS include: 1  sinus bradycardia: the heart beats very slowly, less than 60 beats per minute.  sinus arrest or sinus pause: the sinus node temporarily stops working or pauses, causing a change in the heart’s beating.

- Sinus rhythm is regular with the exception of a phenomenon called sinus arrhythmia during which there is a minimal increase in heart rate during inspiration and a minimal decrease in heart rate duringexpiration. Although arrhythmia means abnormal cardiac rhythm, sinus arrhythmia is truthfully not an abnormal rhythm.

- During a sinus rhythm (originating at SA node), a momentary (transient) sinus block makes the SA node miss a cycle; therefore there is a pause and then another foci (perhaps in the atria) will emit an impulse or atrial escape beat. When the SA node resumes, the atrial focus will be overdrive-suppressed again.

Beat (acoustics) A binaural beat is an auditory illusion perceived when two different pure-tone sine waves, both with frequencies lower than 1500 Hz, with less than a 40 Hz difference between them, are presented to a listener dichotically (one through each ear).[1] For example, if a 530 Hz pure tone is presented to a subject's right ear, while a 520 Hz pure tone is ...

Arrhythmia Normal Heart Rhythm Normal Sinus Rhythm. Description. A normal heart rhythm is called normal sinus rhythm (NSR for short). An NSR will have a heart rate (this is the same as the pulse) between 50 and 100 beats per minute and a normal impulse formation from the SA node ( P wave).

Anatomy and Function of the Heart's Electrical System How does the heart beat? An electrical stimulus is generated in a specialized part of the heart muscle called the sinus node (also called the sinoatrial node, or SA node). The sinus node is a small mass of specialized tissue located in the right atrium (right upper chamber of the heart). In an adult, the sinus node generates a regular electrical stimulus 60 to 100 times per minute.

Cardiology Teaching Package Cardiology Teaching Package. A Beginners Guide to Normal Heart Function, Sinus Rhythm & Common Cardiac Arrhythmias. Sinus rhythm is the name given to the normal rhythm of the heart where electrical stimuli are initiated in the SA node, and are then conducted through the AV node and bundle of His, bundle branches and Purkinje fibres.

Inappropriate Sinus Tachycardia What is inappropriate sinus tachycardia (IST)? Inappropriate Sinus Tachycardia (IST) is a condition in which an individual’s resting heart rate is abnormally high – greater than 100 beats per minute or rapidly accelerating to over 100 beats per minute without an identifiable cause; although small amounts of exercise, emotional or physical stress are triggering factors.

paroxysmal atrial tachycardia sinus tachycardia (ST) a rapid rhythm originating in the sinoatrial node with a rate of usually 100 to 160 beats per minute; conduction through the ventricles is normal. During exercise or stress this is normal, but if it occurs during rest it is abnormal.

Types of Bradycardia - Topic Overview Sinus bradycardia. When a person has sinus bradycardia, the heart rate is less than 60 beats per minute. This slow heart rate might be normal. This type of slow heart rate is often seen in healthy, athletic people.

- Sinus tachycardia is the most common regular SVT. It has an accelerated sinus rate that is a physiologic response to a stressor. It is characterized by a heart rate faster than 100 beats per minute (bpm) and generally involves a regular rhythm with p waves before all QRS complexes.

Heart Rhythm Problems (Arrhythmias) Sinus tachycardia is a normal increase in the heart rate. How it happens. The sinoatrial (SA) node --- the heart's natural pacemaker-sends out electrical signals faster than usual. The heart rate is fast, but the heart beats properly.

Sick Sinus Syndrome The sinus node acts as a pacemaker inside of the heart. Sinus rhythm (the normal beating of the heart) is controlled by electrical impulses from the sinus node. Without the correct impulses, the heart cannot beat properly.

- Normal sinus rhythm (NSR) is the characteristic rhythm of the healthy human heart. NSR is the rhythm that originates from the sinus node. The rate in NSR is generally regular but will vary depending on autonomic inputs into the sinus node. There can be an irregularity in the sinus rate and, when this occurs, it is termed sinus arrhythmia.

- Sinus tachycardia: a fast heart rate may occur with a normal heart rhythm, this is called sinus tachycardia. This means that the impulse generating the heart beats are normal, but they are occurring at a faster pace than normal. This is termed sinus tachycardia and is seen normally with exercise or with excitement.
