Heart Pathologies Part 2

Abnormal heart rhythm

• antirhythm

• abrhythm

• arrhythmia

• asystole

Complete lack of electrical activity in the heart

• bradycardia

• tachycardia

• arrhythmia

• asystole

Complete stopping of heart activity

• cardiac arrest

• heart block

• long QT syndrome

• bradycardia

Congenital or acquired arrhythmia caused by the electrical signal moving through the heart being partially or completely blocked from reaching the ventricles

• bradycardia

• tachycardia

• normal QT wave

• heart block

Abnormally slow resting heartbeat under 60 bpm

• tachycardia

• bradycardia

• asystole

• atrial fibrillation

Abnormally rapid resting heartbeat over 100 bpm

• tachycardia

• bradycardia

• asystole

• arrhythmia

Episodes of abnormally fast/racing heartbeat

• fibrillation

• long QT synderome

• Supraventricular Tachycardia

• atrial palpitation

Inherited or aquired heart rhythm disorder

that can cause chaotic, fast, and potentially dangerous arrhythmias

• SVT

• AFib

• Long QT Syndrome

• septal defect

Rapid, random, ineffective contractions of the atrium

• ventricular fibrillation

• atrial fibrillation

• SVT

• palpitations

Rapid, irregular, and useless contractions of the ventricles

• AFib

• SVT

• atrial fibrillation

• ventricular fibrillation
