How low would a person's heart rate have to be to need to be hospitalized?

And need to be heart monitored 24/7 and all that stuff? And bonus question if anyone knows, how high?

The answer to this question is not a numerical number. Below 60 bpm is considered bradycardia or slow rate, however people live everyday with heart rates under 60, especially athletic people. The key to this question is the patient symptomatic at low heart rates. Is the patient having chest pains, are they dizzy, do they have problems breathing, do they get light headed. There is not a defentive number at which a person is hospitalized. Any rate above 100 is considered tachycardic, or fast. There in also, is your patient symptomatic. I would see a doc about symptomatic abnormal heart rates. I would also see them personally if my heart rate dropped below 50 and if got above 120. That is abnormal for me.



Judging by your ability to ask a question like this I would say you do not have brain damage.

I would say lower than 60 and higher than 180.

dangerous heart rates vary depending on a patients physical condition and other factors. normal is a relative term and what is normal for one person is not always true for another. typically the range is 60-150 (ACLS guidelines) but some athletes can be fine with rates below 60....it depends on what symptoms they are having. if the person is hypotensive (low blood pressure and dizzy say, then it is a problem. heart rates over 150 with chest pain and shortness of breath are also problematic. if there is fever present, sometimes they will come down with simple tylenol. i hope this helps. it is not a simple question.

depends on the patient. there is no clear answer because the bp is just one test.
