MANAGEMENT OF BRADYARRTHYMIA
NORMAL ELETRICAL ACTIVITY OF THE HEART SA NODE -for rate and rhtyhm setting AV NODE -slowing and regulating impulses between atria and ventricles Impulse travels along the pathway into ventricles, the heart contracts and pumps blood around the body
DEFINITION • Bradycardia Heart rate < 60 • Arrthymia -abnormal heart beat due to damage or block in the conduction pathway
TYPES • Sick sinus syndrome - Occurs when SA node fails causing irregular heart beat • Heart block (AV block) - Electrical impulses are slowed or blocked as they travel from atria through AV node into the ventricles
