This document provides definitions and descriptions of various cardiac arrhythmias in 3-5 bullet points each, covering topics such as rate, P wave characteristics, QRS width, conduction patterns, rhythm, common causes, and potential treatment approaches. A total of 16 different arrhythmias are defined, including sinus tachycardia, sinus bradycardia, premature atrial contractions, atrial fibrillation, various types of heart block, bundle branch block, ventricular premature complexes, ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, idioventricular rhythm, and asystole. The document serves as an educational guide for technicians on how to recognize and classify different arrhythmia patterns.
This document discusses the classification and mechanisms of action of various anti-arrhythmic drugs. It describes five classes of anti-arrhythmic drugs based on their effects on cardiac ion channels and muscle fibers. Class I drugs block sodium channels, Class II drugs are beta blockers, Class III drugs prolong the cardiac action potential, and Class IV drugs block calcium channels. The uses, examples and side effects of each drug class are provided. Other therapeutic procedures for treating arrhythmias including defibrillation, cardioversion, catheter ablation, and pacemakers are also briefly mentioned.
The document discusses the diagnosis and management of various cardiac arrhythmias, outlining the assessment of patients' histories, ECG findings, and treatment options including medications, referral indications, and procedures. Case studies are provided examining scenarios involving bradycardias, conduction abnormalities, tachycardias, and their management in both stable and unstable patients.
This document summarizes disorders of heart rate, rhythm, and conduction. It discusses various types of arrhythmias including their causes, symptoms, diagnosis using electrocardiograms, and potential treatments. Specific arrhythmias covered include sinus bradycardia, sinus tachycardia, atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, and supraventricular and ventricular rhythms. Management strategies such as electrical cardioversion, antiarrhythmic medications, catheter ablation, and anticoagulation are described.
Arrhythmias are abnormalities in the heart's rhythm or electrical system. There are two main features of arrhythmias - the site of origin within the heart and the effect on heart rate. Common types include atrial fibrillation, ventricular tachycardia, and ventricular fibrillation. Atrial fibrillation causes the atria to quiver chaotically instead of rhythmically and can lead to blood clots. Ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation involve abnormal electrical signals from the ventricles and are more serious, as they can be fatal if not treated immediately.
The document discusses various types of arrhythmias and their mechanisms. It describes ectopic beats that originate from locations other than the sinoatrial node, and explains that they can cause single beats or take over the heart rhythm. The mechanisms of arrhythmias include altered automaticity, triggered activity, and reentry. Reentry involves unidirectional block and different conduction speeds that allow an impulse to circulate and repeat, creating a reentrant circuit. The document outlines several specific types of arrhythmias like atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, atrioventricular nodal reentry, and Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome.
This document provides an overview of various types of arrhythmias including their typical presentation, underlying causes, characteristic ECG patterns, and treatment approaches. Key types are discussed such as sinus tachycardia, atrial fibrillation, various degrees of heart block, premature ventricular contractions, ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, and asystole. For each, the rate, P wave, QRS complex, conduction, and rhythm are defined and potential causes and management strategies are outlined. The document serves as a guide for clinicians in identifying and treating different cardiac arrhythmias.
This document discusses cardiac arrhythmias and the cardiac conduction system. It describes the sinoatrial node, atrioventricular node, and Purkinje fibers, which make up the cardiac conduction system. Causes of arrhythmias include enhanced automaticity, triggered activity, and re-entry. Various arrhythmias are described including sinus bradycardia, premature atrial contractions, atrial fibrillation, premature ventricular contractions, ventricular tachycardia, and different types of atrioventricular block. The electrocardiogram is discussed as a tool to evaluate heart rate, intervals, waves, and diagnose arrhythmias.

This document discusses the management of patients with prosthetic heart valves, focusing on oral anticoagulation therapy. It describes the anatomy and types of heart valves, including mechanical and biological valves. For patients with mechanical heart valves, lifelong high-intensity oral anticoagulation therapy is required to prevent thromboembolic complications. The risks of thromboembolism and bleeding depend on factors like the patient's sex, age, valve position, and valve type. Optimal anticoagulation aims to minimize both thromboembolic and bleeding risks. Adverse events are discussed and managing complications like bleeding or thrombosis is addressed. Special considerations for anticoagulation during pregnancy and invasive procedures are also covered.
This document discusses treatment options for heart diseases at SDM Narayana Heart Centre in Dharwad. It outlines various diagnostic tests for heart diseases like ECG, echocardiography, and treadmill tests. It then describes surgical procedures for treating issues like blocked arteries, including coronary angioplasty with stent placement and coronary artery bypass surgery. It also mentions treatments for valve diseases like balloon mitral valve procedures and valve replacement surgery. The document concludes with statistics on the procedures performed at SDM Narayana Heart Centre from 2009 to 2015, including over 12,000 angiograms and over 2,000 open heart surgeries.

Hypertension and it's role of physiotherapy in it.Vishal kr Thakur
This particular slides consist of- what is hypertension,what are it's causes and it's effect on body, risk factors, symptoms,complications, diagnosis and role of physiotherapy in it.
This slide is very helpful for physiotherapy students and also for other medical and healthcare students.
Here is summary of hypertension -
Hypertension, also known as high blood pressure, is a serious medical condition that occurs when blood pressure in the body's arteries is consistently too high. Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing against the walls of blood vessels as the heart pumps it. Hypertension can increase the risk of heart disease, brain disease, kidney disease, and premature death.
