How risky are unusual heart rhythms?
Not all unusual heart rhythms (called arrhythmias ) are dangerous or fatal.
How many types of heart rythem-?
There are three types of heart rhythms and they include; Supraventricular arrhythmias,Ventricular arrhythmias,Bradyarrhythmias.
What is a sinus rhythm and what other heart rhythms are there?
Sinus rhythm refers to a heart rhythm that is controlled by the depolarisation of the sinoatrial node. You can also have focal ectopic rhythms where random areas of the heart depolarise first and you can have supraventricular rhythms.
What non-invasive treatment can be used to treat abnormal heart rhythms?
Various drugs can be used to control and help reset these abnormal heart rhythms (arrhythmias ).
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.
What is an antiarrhythmic?
An antiarrhythmic is a drug that controls abnormal heart rhythms.
How do you shock your parents?
Most defibrillators are automatic; that is, once they are applied they will analyze the patient's heart rhythms and advise if a shock is necessary or not. Once a shock is advised, one simply presses a button to shock. Most AEDs have instructions on the machine or in the case on how to use them.
Which technological innovation in medicine resulted from the need to create steady heart rhythms for heart patients?
defialtion
What is Flutter and fibrillation and heart block?
3 different heart rhythms... though flutter and fibrillation when talking about the atria are very very similar... many different kins of heart block... if its 3rd its time to goto the hospital and get a pacemaker. even some of the higher type II's
What is cardiac pulmonary sarcoidosis?
It is sarcoidosis of both the heart and lungs. The heart may show abnormal rhythms on ECG.
What rhythms with fart?
Dart, cart, heart, chart... there's quite a few.
What is a good song for a paramedic project?
"Everybody's got a hungry heart" by Bruce Springsteen.
