ECG Interpretation for Nurses: Sinus arrhythmia

ECG Interpretation for Nurses: Sinus arrhythmia

In this module, we begin our exploration into sinus arrhythmias.

"Sinus arrhythmias" is the umbrella term used to describe a group of arrhythmias that result from changes to the functioning of the SA node.

If you think of just how slow and tired you can be on some days compared to the overly productive days you have and then those moments when you experience disruptions to your day .... that will help you to understand what is happening in the heart as it relates to the SA node.
