  2. Bradycardia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bradycardia

    Non-respiratory causes of sinus arrhythmia include sinus pause, sinus arrest, and sinoatrial exit block. Sinus pause and arrest involve slowing or arresting of automatic impulse generation from the sinus node. This can lead to asystole or cardiac arrest if ventricular escape rhythms do not create backup sources of cardiac action potentials. [2]

  3. Vagal tone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vagal_tone

    Respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA) is frequently used as a noninvasive method for investigating vagal tone, in physiological, behavioral, and several clinical studies. [ 16 ] [ 17 ] [ 18 ] This can be done using electrocardiography (ECG) recording, [ 19 ] although other methods are also being developed that take advantage of the interactions ...

  4. Sinus arrhythmia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinus_arrhythmia

    Sinus arrhythmia is a commonly encountered variation of normal sinus rhythm. Sinus arrhythmia characteristically presents with an irregular rate in which the variation in the R-R interval is more than 0.12 seconds (120 milliseconds). Additionally, P waves are typically mono-form and in a pattern consistent with atrial activation originating ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrocardiography

    The following is an organized list of possible ECG-based diagnoses. [85] Rhythm disturbances or arrhythmias: [86] Atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter without rapid ventricular response; Premature atrial contraction (PACs) and premature ventricular contraction (PVCs) Sinus arrhythmia; Sinus bradycardia and sinus tachycardia; Sinus pause and ...

  6. Arrhythmia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrhythmia

    The term sinus arrhythmia [26] refers to a normal phenomenon of alternating mild acceleration and slowing of the heart rate that occurs with breathing in and out respectively. It is usually quite pronounced in children and steadily decreases with age.

  7. Heart rate variability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_rate_variability

    Respiratory arrhythmia (or respiratory sinus arrhythmia). [39] [40] This heart rate variation is directly caused by the central respiratory rhythm, faithfully tracks the respiratory rate across a range of frequencies and is a major cause of heart rate variability in humans (Cooper HE, Clutton-Brock TH & Parkes MJ (2004). Contribution of the ...

  9. Sinus bradycardia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinus_bradycardia

    Sinus bradycardia is commonly seen in normal healthy persons and athletes in the absence of pathophysiological diseases or conditions. [1] Different factors or etiologies could lead to the dysfunction of the sinus node, causing a malformation or prolongation of the impulse. In terms of pathophysiological diseases, sinus rhythm may be caused by:
