Clinical Information

• Bradycardia

  cardiac arrhythmias that are characterized by excessively slow heart rate, usually below 50 beats per minute in human adults. they can be classified broadly into sinoatrial node dysfunction and atrioventricular block.

• Cardiomegaly, Exercise-Induced

  non-pathological heart enlargement and other remodeling in cardiac morphology and electrical circuitry found in individuals who participate in intense repeated exercises.

• Bradycardia

  an abnormally slow heart rate. thresholds for different age, gender, and patient populations exist.

• Bradycardia Arrest

  cardiac arrest that was a result of bradycardia.

• Fetal Bradycardia|Baseline Fetal Bradycardia|Baseline Fetal Bradycardia|Bradycardia Fetal

  a fetal heart rate below 110 bpm that is sustained for longer than 10 minutes.

• Grade 1 Neonatal Sinus Bradycardia, AE|Grade 1 Neonatal Sinus Bradycardia|Grade 1 Neonatal Sinus Bradycardia, Adverse Event

  an adverse event in a newborn characterized by brief, self-limiting, episodes of sinus bradycardia; no care changes.

• Grade 1 Sinus Bradycardia, CTCAE|Grade 1 Sinus bradycardia|Grade 1 Sinus bradycardia

  asymptomatic, intervention not indicated

• Grade 2 Neonatal Sinus Bradycardia, AE|Grade 2 Neonatal Sinus Bradycardia|Grade 2 Neonatal Sinus Bradycardia, Adverse Event

  an adverse event in a newborn characterized by persistent sinus bradycardia; no change in age-appropriate behavior; requiring minor care changes (e.g. concomitant medication adapted, intermittent increase of fraction of inspired oxygen (fio2)).

• Grade 2 Sinus Bradycardia, CTCAE|Grade 2 Sinus bradycardia|Grade 2 Sinus bradycardia

  symptomatic, intervention not indicated; change in medication initiated

• Grade 3 Neonatal Sinus Bradycardia, AE|Grade 3 Neonatal Sinus Bradycardia|Grade 3 Neonatal Sinus Bradycardia, Adverse Event

  an adverse event in a newborn characterized by persistent sinus bradycardia; resulting in non-life threatening hemodynamic compromise; requiring major care changes (e.g. new medication or intervention).

• Grade 3 Sinus Bradycardia, CTCAE|Grade 3 Sinus bradycardia|Grade 3 Sinus bradycardia

  symptomatic, intervention indicated

• Grade 4 Neonatal Sinus Bradycardia, AE|Grade 4 Neonatal Sinus Bradycardia|Grade 4 Neonatal Sinus Bradycardia, Adverse Event

  a sinus bradycardia adverse event in a newborn characterized by life-threatening consequences (e.g. shock); requiring urgent major care changes.

• Grade 4 Sinus Bradycardia, CTCAE|Grade 4 Sinus bradycardia|Grade 4 Sinus bradycardia

  life-threatening consequences; urgent intervention indicated

• Grade 5 Neonatal Sinus Bradycardia, AE|Grade 5 Neonatal Sinus Bradycardia|Grade 5 Neonatal Sinus Bradycardia, Adverse Event

  a sinus bradycardia adverse event in a newborn which results in death.

• Grade 5 Sinus Bradycardia, CTCAE|Grade 5 Sinus bradycardia|Grade 5 Sinus bradycardia

  death

• Junctional Bradycardia by ECG Finding|JUNCTIONAL BRADYCARDIA|Junctional Bradycardia|Junctional Bradycardia by EKG Finding|Junctional bradycardia

  an electrocardiographic finding of a junctional rhythm with a heat rate which is abnormally low. (cdisc)

• Marked Sinus Bradycardia by ECG Finding|MARKED SINUS BRADYCARDIA

  an electrocardiographic tracing demonstrating sinus bradycardia, with a heart rate lower than an acceptable, predetermined threshold. different thresholds, for rate and/or duration, may apply to different patient populations.

• Neonatal Sinus Bradycardia, AE|Neonatal Sinus Bradycardia|Neonatal Sinus Bradycardia, Adverse Event|Neonatal sinus bradycardia

  an adverse event in a newborn characterized by an abnormally low heart rate for age.

• Persistent Fetal Bradycardia

  a decrease in the fetal heart beat rate below 110 per minute or below the normal baseline value expected for the particular fetal age for a period of more than 10 minutes.

• Sinus Bradycardia by ECG Finding|SINUS BRADYCARDIA|Sinus Bradycardia|Sinus Bradycardia by EKG Finding|Sinus bradycardia

  an electrocardiographic finding of abnormally slow heart rate with its origin in the sinus node. thresholds for different age, gender, and patient populations exist. (cdisc)

• Sinus Bradycardia, CTCAE|Sinus Bradycardia|Sinus bradycardia|Sinus bradycardia

  a disorder characterized by a dysrhythmia with a heart rate less than 60 beats per minute that originates in the sinus node.

• Sinus Bradycardia|Sinus bradycardia

  a disorder characterized by an electrocardiographic finding of abnormally slow heart rate with its origin in the sinus node. thresholds for different age, gender, and patient populations exist. (cdisc)

Patient Education

Arrhythmia

An arrhythmia is a problem with the rate or rhythm of your heartbeat. It means that your heart beats too quickly, too slowly, or with an irregular pattern. When the heart beats faster than normal, it is called tachycardia. When the heart beats too slowly, it is called bradycardia. The most common type of arrhythmia is atrial fibrillation, which causes an irregular and fast heart beat.

Many factors can affect your heart's rhythm, such as having had a heart attack, smoking, congenital heart defects, and stress. Some substances or medicines may also cause arrhythmias.

Symptoms of arrhythmias include:

• Fast or slow heart beat
• Skipping beats
• Lightheadedness or dizziness
• Chest pain
• Shortness of breath
• Sweating

Your doctor can run tests to find out if you have an arrhythmia. Treatment to restore a normal heart rhythm may include medicines, an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) or pacemaker, or sometimes surgery.

Uncommon Infant and Newborn Problems

It can be scary when your baby is sick, especially when it is not an everyday problem like a cold or a fever. You may not know whether the problem is serious or how to treat it. If you have concerns about your baby's health, call your health care provider right away.

Learning information about your baby's condition can help ease your worry. Do not be afraid to ask questions about your baby's care. By working together with your health care provider, you make sure that your baby gets the best care possible.
