| escape rhythm | Three or more consecutive impulses at a rate not exceeding the upper limit of the inherent pacemaker; extreme range of impulse formation at the sinoatrial node is between 40 to 180 impulses per minute, that of the atrioventricular junction is normally 40 to 60 impulses per minute, and the normal rate of the ventricular myocardium (idioventricular rhythm) is 20 to 40 impulses per minute.

| escape training | The technique whereby an organism learns to terminate unpleasant or punishing stimuli by making the appropriate new response which stops the delivery of such stimuli. Compare: avoidance conditioning. Synonym: escape training. (05 Mar 2000) |
| escape ventricular contraction | An escape beat arising in the ventricle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tumour escape | The ability of tumours to evade destruction by the immune system. Theories concerning possible mechanisms by which this takes place involve both cellular and humoral immunity, and also costimulatory pathways related to CD28 antigens and CD80 antigens. (12 Dec 1998) |
