What would be the heart rate considered to be a Tachycardia?
Tachycardia is a heart rate that exceeds the normal range. A heart rate over 100 beats per minute is generally accepted as tachycardia. Tachycardia can be caused by various factors which often are benign. However, tachycardia can be dangerous depending on the speed and type of rhythm.
What sinus rhythm has a rate of more than 100 beats per minute?
That's normal for hedgehogs...
A slow heart rate characterized by a pulse rate under 60 beats per minute is called?
Bradycardia, is the term the medical profession uses for a heart rate below 60 beats per minute. Normal is considered 60-100 beats per minute. Many people can have bradycardia and be perfectly normal. Some athletes, for instance, have resting heart rates below 60. there is concern with a resting heart rate below 60, when you have associative symptom such as dizziness or shortness of breath.
What is the difference between heart rate and ventricular rate?
On an ECG the heart rate will match both ventricular rate and atrial rate if the heart is normal. If people have atrial fibrilation then the ventricular rate will be used on the ECG to work out the rate of the ventricular contraction and vice-versa with ventricular fibrilation. Usually both atrial and ventricular rates match so if the atria contracts at 70 BPM the ventricles will beat at 70 BPM. It is possible for the ECG machine to work out atrial or ventricular rate if needs be. Usually, however, if the ECG machine just displays heart rate then both ventricular and atrial rates match.
Is 100 beats per minute normal in an ekg?
100 beats per minute is considered the upper limit of normal.
What is ventricular tachycardia?
As an individual having had SVT since birth I have grown to understand this as an inexplicable, rapid increase in heart rate. There are possible contributary factors such as high fat diet and alcohol but mine seems to be triggered posturally (when i bend over or jump). The heart will jump from resting to 200bpm in a blink of an eye and may last for anything from 5 seconds to 60 minutes (for me). Treatment can be digoxin which cures arhythmias. Other symptoms of SVT include palor, sweat, shortness of breath and dizzyness. Thought to be a chronic condition although having spoken to several doctors about it, there doesnt seem to be a definite answer as to why it happens.

What is normal pulse for adults?
A normal heart rate for an adult is between 60 and 100 beats per minute. Below that it is bradycardia, and above that it is tachycardia.
Is a resting pulse 102 a minute normal?
No -- that's a tad high. It comes in at the low end of tachycardia (100BPM and up).
What sinus rhythm has a rate of more than 100 beats per minute?

What turns arrythmia into normal sinus respirations?
There is no such thing as a normal sinus respiration. I assume you meant, normal sinus rhythm. (seeing that arrhythmia deals with the heart and not the lungs). An intervention will depend solely on the type of arrhythmia (e.g. atrial, ventricular). Cardioversion is usually done. Cardioversion is either the administration of antiarrhythimics such as amiodarone or sending synchronized electrical currents to the heart. Defibrillation is only done when Ventricular Tachycardia (without a pulse) or Ventricular Fibrillation occurs.
What is the difference between tachycardia and bradycardia?
Normal heart beat rate is 60-100 bpm, In basic terms, we call it bradycardia when the heart rate is below 60 bpm, whereas tachycardia is when it exceeds 100 bpm.
You are a 57 year old female with a constant heart rate of 100-140 beats per minute Is this normal?
Normal heart rate is between 60-100 beats per minute. Above 100 is called tachycardia. It can occur normally after exercise. Also tachycardia can occur in stress, thyroid disorders, heart disorders, neurovascular disorder, hormonal abnormalities, intake of certain drugs and several other disorders. A proper history specially about the current medications you are taking is required. You need to consult your doctor regarding this.
Tachycardia?
Tachycardia is a condition in which the heart beats at an abnormally fast rate of more than 100 beats per minute. This type of arrhythmia is caused by an abnormality in the heart's electrical system. Tachycardia can be treated surgically or with medication.Reviewed ByReview Date: 10/10/2008Larry A.

Is a 170 beats per minute fast?
Normal resting heart rate for an adult is between 60 and 100 beats per minute. Anything faster than that is considered tachycardia, which can cause dizziness and even fainting. It can be dangerous if not treated.
