What to do for junctional escape rhythm?

For junctional escape rhythm, the underlying cause should be identified and treated. If symptoms are present or if the heart rate is significantly slow, consultation with a healthcare provider is recommended. Management may involve addressing any underlying electrolyte imbalances, medication adjustments, or in severe cases, a pacemaker may be considered.


What is the structure of the artificial pacemaker?

The sinoatrial node is commonly referred to as the pacemake of the heart. Located in the atrium, the SA node usually "fires" 60 to 100 times a minute which induces the heart to beat. Heart rhythms that start from this node are known as sinus rhythms. The heart also has a atrioventricular pacemaker that "fires" at 40 to 60 beats per minute. If the sinoatrial node fails to function, the AV node will begin to work. Heart rhythms that are generated from this node are known as junctional rhythms. Finally, as a last resort, there is a ventricular pacemaker. This "fires" at a rate of 20 to 40. These rhythms are described as idioventricular or "escape" rhythms. People whit these heart rhythms most likely will be experiencing severe signs and symptoms of poor perfusion.


The p in an electrocardiogram sHow is what?

The P wave is the first wave in an ECG complex, and it results from the atria depolarizing. It may not be present in arrhythmias where the atria do not necessarily depolarize, such as junctional or ventricular escape rhythms, and at times when the atria are depolarizing abnormally this will be reflected in the P wave's replacement by abnormal waves, such as the low-amplitude "squiggle" seen in atrial fibrillation, or the "sawtooth" pattern seen in atrial flutter.
