  2. Fusion beat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fusion_beat

    This contrasts with the pseudofusion beat wherein the pacemaker impulse does not affect the complex of the natural beat of the heart. Pseudofusion beats are normal. Rare or isolated fusion beats caused by pacemakers are normal as well, but if they occur too frequently may reduce cardiac output and so can require adjustment of the pacemaker. [3]

  4. Premature atrial contraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Premature_atrial_contraction

    While the sinoatrial node typically regulates the heartbeat during normal sinus rhythm, PACs occur when another region of the atria depolarizes before the sinoatrial node and thus triggers a premature heartbeat, [1] in contrast to escape beats, in which the normal sinoatrial node fails, leaving a non-nodal pacemaker to initiate a late beat.

  5. Pacemaker syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacemaker_syndrome

    Pacemaker syndrome is a condition that represents the clinical consequences of suboptimal atrioventricular (AV) synchrony or AV dyssynchrony, regardless of the pacing mode, after pacemaker implantation. [1] [2] It is an iatrogenic disease—an adverse effect resulting from medical treatment—that is often underdiagnosed.

  6. Comic timing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comic_timing

    A beat is a pause taken for the purposes of comic timing, often to allow the audience time to recognize the joke and react, or to heighten the suspense before delivery of the expected punch line. Pauses—sometimes called "dramatic pauses" [ 12 ] —in this context, can be used to distinguish subtext or even unconscious content—that is, what ...

  7. Premature ventricular contraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Premature_ventricular...

    During ventricular activation, one bundle tract's area of slow conduction activates the other tract's bundle fibers post block after the rest of the ventricle has recovered. This resulting in an extra beat. Reentry can produce single ectopic beats, or it can trigger paroxysmal tachycardia.

  8. Ectopic beat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ectopic_beat

    Ectopic beat is a disturbance of the cardiac rhythm frequently related to the electrical conduction system of the heart, in which beats arise from fibers or group of fibers outside the region in the heart muscle ordinarily responsible for impulse formation (i.e., the sinoatrial node).

  9. Entrainment (biomusicology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entrainment_(biomusicology)

    Beat induction can be seen as a fundamental cognitive skill that allows for music (e.g., Patel, 2008; Honing, 2007; 2012). We can hear a pulse in a rhythmic pattern while it might not even be explicitly in there: The pulse is being induced (hence the name) while listening—like a perspective can be induced by looking at an arrangement of ...
