Agonal heart rhythm is usually ventricular in origin. Occasional P waves and QRS complexes can be seen on the electrocardiogram. The complexes tend to be wide and bizarre in morphological appearance. [1] Clinically, an agonal rhythm is regarded as asystole and should be treated equivalently, with cardiopulmonary resuscitation and administration ...
Asystole (New Latin, from Greek privative a "not, without" + systolē "contraction" [1] [2]) is the absence of ventricular contractions in the context of a lethal heart arrhythmia (in contrast to an induced asystole on a cooled patient on a heart-lung machine and general anesthesia during surgery necessitating stopping the heart).
Agonal respirations are commonly seen in cases of cardiogenic shock (decreased organ perfusion due to heart failure) or cardiac arrest (failure of heartbeat), where agonal respirations may persist for several minutes after cessation of heartbeat.
An abnormal heart rhythm, also called an arrhythmia, is when your heart beats too fast, too slow, or irregularly. Here’s everything you need to know.

Get your heart rate up, but don’t overdo it. One study published in Cognition and Emotion showed that just 30 minutes of jogging significantly reduced sadness and improved emotional regulation ...
The first finding is that junctional rhythms are regular rhythms. This means that the time interval between beats stays constant. The next normal finding is a normal QRS. Since the impulse still travels down the bundle of His, the QRS will not be wide. Junctional rhythms can present with either bradycardia, a normal heart rate, or tachycardia. [9]
