dysrhythmia

DYSRHYTHMIA
Atrial dysrhythmia: An irregular heartbeat originating in the atria of the heart.
Ventricular dysrhythmia: Abnormal heart rhythms arising from the ventricles, the lower chambers of the heart.
Cardiac dysrhythmia: Any abnormal rhythm of the heart, which can include tachycardias, bradycardias, and irregular rhythms.
Supraventricular dysrhythmia: Abnormal heart rhythms originating above the ventricles, typically in the atria or atrioventricular node.
Arrhythmic dysrhythmia: An irregular heart rhythm characterized by an absence of a discernible pattern.
Sinus dysrhythmia: An irregularity in the normal sinus rhythm of the heart, often related to changes in breathing patterns.
Atrial fibrillation: A common type of dysrhythmia characterized by rapid, irregular contractions of the atria.
Ventricular fibrillation: A life-threatening dysrhythmia where the ventricles quiver instead of contracting effectively, leading to cardiac arrest.
Tachydysrhythmia: An abnormal and fast heart rhythm, often associated with a heart rate greater than 100 beats per minute.
Bradycardic dysrhythmia: A slow and irregular heart rhythm, typically characterized by a heart rate less than 60 beats per minute.
Paroxysmal dysrhythmia: Sudden and intermittent episodes of irregular heart rhythm.
Sustained dysrhythmia: A persistent and continuous abnormal heart rhythm.
Atrial flutter: A type of atrial dysrhythmia characterized by rapid, regular atrial contractions.
Ventricular tachycardia: A dysrhythmia marked by rapid, regular contractions of the ventricles.
Atrioventricular dysrhythmia: Irregular heart rhythms related to disturbances in the atrioventricular node.
Idiopathic dysrhythmia: Abnormal heart rhythms of unknown or spontaneous origin.
Premature dysrhythmia: Occasional irregular heartbeats that occur before the expected time.
Reentrant dysrhythmia: A type of abnormal heart rhythm caused by electrical signals following a circular pathway in the heart.
Digitalis-induced dysrhythmia: Irregular heart rhythms triggered by the use of digitalis medications.
Ischemic dysrhythmia: Abnormal heart rhythms resulting from reduced blood flow and oxygen supply to the heart muscle.
