The rhythm is either sinus rhythm or not sinus rhythm. Sinus rhythm refers to the origination of the electrical activity coming from the sinus node — also known as the sinoatrial node, or SA node.

An abnormal heart rhythm, also known as an arrhythmia, occurs when the heart beats too fast, too slow, or irregularly, which can be caused by various factors affecting the heart’s complex system.

An arrhythmia (pronounced as “uh-RITH-me-uh”) is an irregular heartbeat. This means your heart is out of its usual rhythm. About 1.5%-5% of people have arrhythmias. It may feel like your heart skipped ...

Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is a sudden, unexpected death caused by a change in heart rhythm (sudden cardiac arrest). It is the largest cause of natural death in the U.S., causing between 180,000 to ...
