IBI is generally measured in units of milliseconds. In normal heart function, each IBI value varies from beat to beat. This natural variation is known as heart rate variability (HRV). However, certain cardiac conditions may cause the individual IBI values to become nearly constant, resulting in the HRV being nearly zero.
Heart rate variability visualized with R-R interval changes Electrocardiogram (ECG) recording of a canine heart that illustrates beat-to-beat variability in R–R interval (top) and heart rate (bottom). Heart rate variability (HRV) is the physiological phenomenon of variation in the time interval between heartbeats. It is measured by the ...
A medical monitoring device displaying a normal human heart rate. Heart rate is the frequency of the heartbeat measured by the number of contractions of the heart per minute (beats per minute, or bpm). The heart rate varies according to the body's physical needs, including the need to absorb oxygen and excrete carbon dioxide.
When is your heart rate normal and when is it dangerous? Experts explain what to do if your heart rate is too low or too high.
495 milliseconds – an approximate average of the round trip time for communications via geosynchronous satellites; 500 milliseconds – an eighth note at 60 BPM; 770 milliseconds – revolution period of a 78 rpm record; 860 milliseconds – average human resting heart cycle time; 1000 milliseconds – one second; the period of a 1 Hz oscillator
Time unit used for sedimentation rates (usually of proteins). picosecond: 10 −12 s: One trillionth of a second. nanosecond: 10 −9 s: One billionth of a second. Time for molecules to fluoresce. shake: 10 −8 s: 10 nanoseconds, also a casual term for a short period of time. microsecond: 10 −6 s: One millionth of a second. Symbol is μs ...

For example, taking normal QTc ≤ 0.42 s, QT would be expected to be 0.42 s or less at a heart rate of 60 bpm. For a heart rate of 70 bpm, QT would roughly be expected to be equal to or below 0.40 s. Likewise, for 80 bpm, QT would roughly be expected to be equal to or below 0.38 s. [13]
