Bradycardia, also called bradyarrhythmia, is a resting heart rate under 60 beats per minute (BPM). [1] While bradycardia can result from various pathologic processes, it is commonly a physiologic response to cardiovascular conditioning or due to asymptomatic type 1 atrioventricular block.
Elimination-excretion patterns and problems need to be evaluated (constipation, incontinence, diarrhea) Activity exercise-whether one is able to do daily activities normally without any problem, self care activities; Sleep rest-do they have hypersomnia, insomnia, do they have normal sleeping patterns
[medical citation needed] Sinus bradycardia can also be an adaptive advantage; for example, diving seals may have a heart rate as low as 12 beats per minute, helping them to conserve oxygen during long dives. [4] Sinus bradycardia is a common condition found in both healthy individuals and those who are considered well-conditioned athletes. [5]
The questionnaire asks subjects to score the amounts of seasonal changes they have experienced in sleep, socialization, mood, weight, appetite and energy. A global score between 0 and 24 is gotten by adding up the scores on each of these items. Subjects also specify the months during which these changes are greatest and least.
Heart tissue infection also known as myocarditis -Complication of heart surgery; Hypothyroidism or an underactive thyroid gland [1] Imbalance of electrolytes which are mineral related substances needed for conducting electrical impulses; Obstructive sleep apnea which is the repeated disruption of breathing during sleep due to obstruction to the ...
There are 6 different sinus arrhythmia. [1] [2]A normal heart should have a normal sinus rhythm, this rhythm can be identified by a ventricular rate of 60-100 bpm, at a regular rate, with a normal PR interval (0.12 to 0.20 second) and a normal QRS complex (0.12 second and less).
Children with obstructive sleep-disordered breathing also show a faster heart rate during wakefulness and during sleep. [74] In adult patients, OSA has been shown to be associated with insulin resistance. [75] In children, metabolic consequences of OSA are complicated to assess as they can also be associated to puberty and obesity (if present ...
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.
