Bradycardia vs Symptomatic Bradycardia
Bradycardia is defined as a heart rate of less than 60 beats per minute. While any heart rate less than 60 beats per minute is considered bradycardia, not every individual with bradycardia is symptomatic or has a pathological event. Individuals in excellent physical shape often have sinus bradycardia.
Symptomatic Bradycardia is when a slower than typical heartbeat (bradycardia) can prevent the brain and other organs from getting enough oxygen, possibly causing these signs and symptoms: Chest pain. Confusion or memory problems. Dizziness or lightheadedness.
Symptomatic bradycardia should be treated with the ACLS Survey. If bradycardia persists but is asymptomatic, obtain a consultation from a cardiologist experienced in treating rhythm disorders.
