Atrial Rhythms:

IF The SA Node Fails to Generate an Impulse, the ATRIAL
Tissue or areas in the internodal pathways may
initiate an impulse.

These are called Atrial ______________**********

Generally NOT considered life-threatening But MUST ASSESS ROOT CAUSE*****
Dysrhythmias

Ventricular Rhythms:

IF The SA node OR the AV junctional tissue Fails to
initiate an electrical impulse, the ___________ will
shoulder the responsibility of pacing the heart.

This group of rhythms are called ventricular

VENTRICLE
Dysrhythmias
REMEMBER:

An electrical impulse can be instigated from ANY
Pacemaker Cell in the Ventricles, Including the
Bundle Branches or the Purkinje
Fibers.
