Want this question answered?
pacemaker
Pacemaker:))
Atrial paced
A lot depends on the type of pacemaker that has been fitted. Does the tachycardia seem excessive or only a slight increase? Unless the tachy is causing symptoms, eg, breathless ness then it may be normal for that patient.
Atrial fibrillation can be treated with medication to control the heart rate and thin the blood to reduce the risk of blood clot, heart attack, or stroke. Invasive procedures to treat atrial fibrillation include an ablation or, in extreme cases, the implantation of a pacemaker.
cardiac cycle The sino-atrial node, otherwise known as the pacemaker.
A P wave denotes atrial depolarization or when your atriacontracts. It is generated by the Sinoatrial (SA) node which is the primary pacemaker and signifies a Sinus Rhythm.
Premature atrial contractions or PAC's are heart beats that starts in the atria but from a different source than the normal pacemaker and sooner that the "normal" beats.They can occasionally be felt, usually as a few rapids beats while at rest, and can be suppressed if bothersome, but are generally not harmful.
The primary pacemaker of the mammalian heart is the sino-atrial node. If the SA node fails, the atrioventricular node (AV node) takes over pacemaking.
They're he same thing. Atrial flutter is more of a slang term, and is sometimes found in patients with atrial tachycardia. Basically, atrial fibrillation is a disorder, and atrial flutter is a symptom
which of the following applies to the sinoatrial node? a)it is a mass of nerve cells b)it produces important enzymes c)it generates autorhythmic impulses to the contractthe heart d)it contains both bicuspid and tricuspid valves
The pacemaker is only used during a procedure that places an artificial pacemaker in your chest to make your heart beat regular. That is only when the person's heart is having irregular heart beats. People with regular heartbeats with no artificial pacemaker....the way that the heartbeat is regular is through The SA node (sinoatrial). It is a group of cells that is located in the right atrium and sets the pace for the heart, increasing and decreasing when it is needed.
