Sinus bradycardia is a type of slow heartbeat. A special group of cells begin the signal to start your heartbeat. These cells are in the sinoatrial (SA) node. Normally, the SA node fires the signal at about 60 to 100 times per minute at rest. In sinus bradycardia, the node fires less than 60 times per minute.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM I49. 2 became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of I49.
Other specified cardiac arrhythmias The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM I49. 8 became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of I49.
The term “sinus bradycardia” breaks down based on the two words. Bradycardia comes from the Greek words “bradys,” meaning “slow,” and “kardia,” meaning “heart.” Sinus bradycardia means your heart is beating slowly but still using a sinus rhythm.
Typical heartbeat Bradycardia can be caused by: Heart tissue damage related to aging. Damage to heart tissues from heart disease or heart attack. A heart condition present at birth (congenital heart defect)
Junctional bradycardia (JB) involves cardiac rhythms that arise from the atrioventricular junction at a heart rate of <60/min. In patients with retrograde atrioventricular nodal conduction, a retrograde P wave can be accompanied with JB.
An implantable loop recorder may help diagnose junctional rhythm in patients with very infrequent symptoms. In patients with an accelerated junctional rhythm after cardiac surgery, documentation of AV conduction is imperative.
Atrial and ventricular pacing can be seen on the electrocardiogram (ECG) as a pacing stimulus (spike) followed by a P wave or QRS complex, respectively. The ECG has the ability to show normal and abnormal pacemaker function. ATRIAL PACING ONLY.
What is Dysrhythmia? Cardiac dysrhythmias are a problem with the rate or rhythm of your heartbeat caused by changes in your heart's normal sequence of electrical impulses. Your heart may beat too quickly, called tachycardia; too slowly, bradycardia; or with an irregular pattern.
427.9I49. 9 converts to ICD-9-CM: 427.9 - Cardiac dysrhythmia, unspecified.
While sometimes sinus bradycardia may not need treatment, it can also be a sign of serious health conditions that need attention. Always seek emergency medical care if you experience chest pain that lasts longer than a few minutes, trouble breathing, or fainting.
In patients with sinus bradycardia secondary to therapeutic use of digitalis, beta-blockers, or calcium channel blockers, simple discontinuation of the drug, along with monitored observation, are often all that is necessary. Occasionally, intravenous atropine and temporary pacing are required.
In most cases, bradycardia in healthy, well-trained athletes does not need to be treated. In fact, in most people, bradycardia does not require treatment unless patients have symptoms that are clearly due to a slow heartbeat.
Bradycardia treatment may include lifestyle changes, medication changes or an implanted device called a pacemaker. If an underlying health problem, such as thyroid disease or sleep apnea, is causing the slower than normal heartbeat, treatment of that condition might correct bradycardia.
