Examples of bradycardia
bradycardia
A diagnosis of bradycardia in adults is based on a heart rate less than 60 bpm.
From the en.wikipedia.org
The major physiological antidote is atropine, which is used to treat bradycardia.

So, bradycardia is defined whenever the heart rate is 60 beats per minute or less.

Ventricular bradycardias occurs with sinus bradycardia, sinus arrest, and AV block.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Patients with bradycardia have likely acquired it, as opposed to having it congenitally.

The second, sinus bradycardia, is a sinus rhythm of less than 60 bpm.

A permanent pacemaker may be placed in situations where the bradycardia is not expected to recover.

- Abnormally slow heartbeat
- Bradycardia, also known as bradyarrhythmia, is a slow heart rate, defined as a heart rate of under 60 beats per minute (BPM) in adults. Bradycardia typically does not cause symptoms until the rate drops below 50 BPM. When symptomatic, it may cause fatigue, weakness, dizziness, and at very low rates fainting.
- The condition of having a slow heartbeat, defined as under 60 beats per minute for an adult
- 60 or fewer heartbeats a minute.
- Relatively slow heart action whether physiological or pathological
- A heart beat rate of less than 60 beats per minute in a resting adult. Symptoms include fainting, dizziness, tiring easily especially during physical activity, shortness of breath, disturbed sleep, mental confusion, and fatigue. ...
- Is due either to altered pacemaker function of the sinoatrial node or an interrupted impulse conduction through the natural electrical pathways of the heart.
- A slow heartbeat with pulse rate below 60/minute.
- Excessively slow heart rate. Usually transient and often associated with apnea and desaturation.
