Is it normal for a teenagers heart beat to vary from 33 beats to 157 beats and pause for up to 5.5 seconds at its slowest?
No, that is not normal. You should have her checked by a cardiologist. the sooner the better.
How do you measure rhythm pulse?
The rhythm of the pulse is checked by feeling the radial pulse, to see if the beats are coming at regular intervals or irregular intervals, if there is a pause or dropped beats in between the pule and if it is normal rate, slow or fast. More detailed information will be done by ECG / EKG and for irregular pulse you may need study of 24 hour tape of the heart.
Can you die from a resting pulse rate of 163?
Yes you can. Normal heart rate is 60-100. When the heart is beating faster than that it is just like if you were to take off running as fast as you can down the street without stopping. Eventually you will get tired and fall because you can't run any more. Your legs will hurt and it will be hard to breath. It is the same with the heart. It will get tired and just quit. Now, 163 is high and dangerous for someone who normally has a heart rate 100 or below, if it stays 163 for a long time. It is not dangerous if it rises for just a little while such as when you are exercising and you are healthy. If you want to know more detail about what happens to a heart that is beating at 163 read the following: There is a very short pause between the beats of the heart. This pause allows the blood to fill the heart so it can pump it to the lungs to load up with oxygen and out of the heart so it can deliver oxygen to the rest of the body. When the heart beats that fast, the pause is shorter so less blood has time to fill up the heart. Less blood means less oxygen being delivered and the cells of the body, including the heart itself (because it is a muscle) starts to die from lack of oxygen. This is what causes the heart to eventually give out and stop.
What does Predominant rhythm is atrial fibrillation mean?
Break down phrases into word meanings. Predominant means primary (at this moment). Rhythm is a noticeable timed or untimed sequence of events-- for example, a song has 3 short beats followed by 6 rapid beats; that is that song's rhythm. Atrial Fibrillation (or A-Fib) is a sustained rapid "quivering" of the heart, rather than normal systole. A-Fib does not let the heart chambers, especially the ventricles, rest. A normal heart would be lub-lub, pause, lub-lub, etc. But A-fib is more like lub-lu-lub-lu-lub-lu... rapid and continuous. A-Fib is a medical emergency that needs corrected before the underlying problem causes the heart to stop.
Compensatory pause ecg?
A compensatory pause is noted on an electrocardiogram after a premature complex. It precedes the next normal complex, and compensates for the abnormality of the heart beat.
What the difference between pause and stop?
stop means that you actually stop it. Pause means you stop it and start it again.
Another word for heart attack?
myocardial infarction (cardiacapulse) (or pause instead of pulse)
