Sinus Bradycardia
- Rate < 60 b pm
Etiology: SA node is depolarizing slower than normal, impulse is conducted normally (i.e. normal PR and QRS interval).

Sinus Tachycardia
- Rate > 100 bpm• Etiology: SA node is depolarizing faster than
normal, impulse is conducted normally.• Remember: sinus tachycardia is a response to
physical or psychological stress, not a primary arrhythmia.
