Supraventricular tachycardia

that she could have a clearer airway however, she fought it going in. We then arrived at the hospital where everyone was getting things ready for her to come. They hooked her up to the monitor her heart rate kept going from sinus tachycardia to supraventricular tachycardia. Since the heart rate was anywhere from 120-170 bpm. The doctor ended up intubating her, giving her an OG tube, and was on a Propofol drip. Her mother said that she had been intubated before and her last seizure was in…

The pacemaker helps treat an issue called arrhythmias. Arrhythmias are problems with the beat of your heartrate. There are 4 different types of arrhythmias, premature which is when you get extra beats (the most common type), Supraventricular tachycardia is when your heart beats too fast, ventricular rhythm issues can halt the ventricle from pumping blood into your body (this could result in cardiac arrest), and Bradycardia is when your heart beats too slow meaning not enough blood gets to your…

Cardiac Arrhythmia is an anomaly in the Heart which can be diagnosed with the help of Electrocardiogram (ECG) signal. ECG signal is a diagrammatic representation of the cardiac signal, which is most important biomedical signal, taken for the feature extraction. Since it is very difficult to analyse the ECG signal due to the size, noise and changes in the signal, automatic system for ECG signal processing is essential. For this, ECG signal is processed using wavelets based signal processing,…

earlier diagnosis and management of takotsubo syndrome. In a case study completed by Mantilla (2016), A 22-year-old female was just prepared for surgery on her mandible when her heart rate became bradycardic and then abruptly advanced into supraventricular tachycardia. She had hypotension, persistent ST changes, and bronchospasms. There was bloody substance coming out of the nasotracheal tube which suggested pulmonary edema. A chest X-ray displayed severe pulmonary edema on both sides. An…
