  2. 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 ...

  3. 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 ...

  4. Parasympathetic nervous system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parasympathetic_nervous_system

    [18] [19] The main mechanism by which the parasympathetic nervous system acts on vascular and cardiac control is the so-called respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA). RSA is described as the physiological and rhythmical fluctuation of heart rate at the respiration frequency, characterized by heart rate increase during inspiration and decrease ...

  5. Bainbridge reflex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bainbridge_reflex

    The Bainbridge reflex may also contribute to respiratory sinus arrhythmia as intrathoracic pressure decreases during inspiration causing increased venous return. [3] [4] The reflex is named after Francis Arthur Bainbridge, an English physiologist. The Bainbridge reflex was one of the first neural cardiovascular reflexes to be described and ...

  6. 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 ...

  7. Rhythm interpretation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhythm_interpretation

    Rhythm interpretation is an important part of healthcare in Emergency Medical Services . Trained medical personnel can determine different treatment options based on the cardiac rhythm of a patient. There are many common heart rhythms that are part of a few different categories, sinus arrhythmia, atrial arrhythmia, ventricular arrhythmia.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiovascular_centre

    The cardiovascular centre, or cardiovascular center, is part of the medulla oblongata of the brainstem. [1] [2] Normally, the heart beats without nervous control.In some situations, such as exercise, and major trauma, the cardiovascular centre is responsible for altering heart rate.
