| CTSNFR | corrected time of sinoatrial node function recovery |
| DSACT, D-SACT | direct sinoatrial conduction time |
| sinus bradycardia | <cardiology, physiology> Bradycardia originating in the normal sinus pacemaker. (05 Mar 2000) |

| nodal bradycardia | The cardiac rhythm when the heart is controlled by the A-V junction (including node); arising in the A-V junction, the impulse ascends to the atria and descends to the ventricles, each at varying speeds depending on site of the pacemaker. Synonym: A-V junctional rhythm, nodal bradycardia, nodal rhythm. (05 Mar 2000) |
| idiopathic bradycardia | A slow pulse for which no cause can be discovered. Synonym: idiopathic bradycardia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tachycardia-bradycardia syndrome | <syndrome> A disorder consisting of abnormalities of supraventricular impulse generation and conduction which produce a wide variety of intermittent rapid and slow supraventricular arrhythmias. Common symptoms include palpitations, faintness and fainting. Diagnosis is generally by 24 hour cardiac monitoring. A permanent pacemaker is indicated for those who are unresponsive to drug therapy.

| essential bradycardia | A slow pulse for which no cause can be discovered. Synonym: idiopathic bradycardia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| foetal bradycardia | A foetal heart rate of less than 100 beats per minute. (05 Mar 2000) |
