  2. Sinus tachycardia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinus_tachycardia

    Sinus tachycardia is a sinus rhythm of the heart, with an increased rate of electrical discharge from the sinoatrial node, resulting in a tachycardia, a heart rate that is higher than the upper limit of normal (90-100 beats per minute for adult humans). [1] The normal resting heart rate is 60–90 bpm in an average adult. [2]

  3. Heart rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_rate

    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.

  4. Tachycardia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tachycardia

    Tachycardia, also called tachyarrhythmia, is a heart rate that exceeds the normal resting rate. [1] In general, a resting heart rate over 100 beats per minute is accepted as tachycardia in adults. [1] Heart rates above the resting rate may be normal (such as with exercise) or abnormal (such as with electrical problems within the heart).

  5. Cardiac output - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_output

    Major factors influencing cardiac output – heart rate and stroke volume, both of which are variable. [1]In cardiac physiology, cardiac output (CO), also known as heart output and often denoted by the symbols , ˙, or ˙, [2] is the volumetric flow rate of the heart's pumping output: that is, the volume of blood being pumped by a single ventricle of the heart, per unit time (usually measured ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modular_scheduling

    When Covington Catholic High School implemented a modular schedule in 1968, it also extended off-campus privileges to all students, encouraging them to visit community institutions such as libraries. However, the policy proved controversial; after a change in management, the school limited off-campus privileges to seniors in good standing.

  7. Junctional rhythm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Junctional_rhythm

    Secondary to heart blocks, myocarditis, and secondary complications Junctional rhythm also called nodal rhythm [ 2 ] describes an abnormal heart rhythm resulting from impulses coming from a locus of tissue in the area of the atrioventricular node (AV node), [ 3 ] the "junction" between atria and ventricles.

  8. Vagal tone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vagal_tone

    This relieves the suppression of vagal tone and leads to a decreased heart rate. [1] Heart rate (HR) (first row), tidal volume (Vt) (second row), Vt and superimposed HR (third row). The HR modulation is clearly visible: HR increases with inspiration and decreases with expiration. Heart rate (HR) (first row), ECG signal (ECG) (second row), and ...
