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?



How low would a person%26#039;s heart rate have to be to need to be hospitalized?

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.



How low would a person%26#039;s heart rate have to be to need to be hospitalized?

I would say lower than 60 and higher than 180.

0 beats per minute I don%26#039;t know maybe ask the doctor to get you a stress test to see how well the ticker is working



How low would a person%26#039;s heart rate have to be to need to be hospitalized?

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.

Sharp stabbing chest pain, shakey....rapid heart rate?

I have been having a lot of abdominal pain, after gallbladder surgery a year and half ago. But now it seems my back is out of whack and I am having a lot of upper chest pain, and some sharp stabbing chest pain along with some shaking. Anyone have a clue. I can also feel my heart in my throat.



Sharp stabbing chest pain, shakey....rapid heart rate?

I had similar problems to this after I had my gull bladder out. My chest pain got so bad that I even went to the er and they found nothing. Thankfully I found an awesome doctor that told me it was a form of heartburn that you get after you get your gallbladder removed. If it happens now I just take some liquid malox and it goes away quickly. It gets worse when you panic so try and stay calm and always have malox on hand.



Sharp stabbing chest pain, shakey....rapid heart rate?

infection,stress,pulled muscles,anxiety



Sharp stabbing chest pain, shakey....rapid heart rate?

Sounds as if you need to check your diet - removal of the gallbladder doesn%26#039;t solve stomach issues. The rest of the symptoms sound like anxiety attacks, but you need to consult a doctor - not Yahoo. I wish you the best.



Sharp stabbing chest pain, shakey....rapid heart rate?

Hello,



It could be a panic/anxiety attack-it does mimic a heart attack. The same chemicals are produced-and one feels as though they are going to die-it is very, very real only thing is the mind has tremendous potential to also create havoc with our bodies as in the mind/body connection. My advice is to have a stress test and Angiogram to determine if you have any obstructions or narrowing in the major arteries of your heart or if you smoke you could not be getting enough oxgyen to the heart alerting the body%26#039;s response mechanism something is wrong-if one suffers from sleep apnea it can also cause all kinds of problems for our body-that way you can rule that out any physical findings. Then you can concentrate on the mind part of it like talking to someone one-on-one. If one has suffered from this condition it is a mulit-prong approach and understanding from loved ones. It is a matter of finding postive coping mechanisms to deal with past trauma. Sometimes, we react to situations without checking it out when it %26quot;first happens%26quot; so our mind thinks the worst when it wasn%26#039;t that way at all. Someone once mentioned to me about another person %26quot;If you change the way you think-you change the way to act.%26quot; I guess it is attitude-it is very important and the people one surrounds themselves with-meaning other people who are working on their own issues. Our behavior is liken to a pebble in a pond-as the pebble lands on the surface of the water the effect continues outward large circular rings from the one pebble. God Bless you Wild Beagle, hope this helps...

What does caffeine do to your heart rate?

Please tell me the effects of caffeine and what it does to your heart and would it help you for a sport such as running?



What does caffeine do to your heart rate?

Caffeine will speed up your heart rate, but if you take to much you will get an upset stomach, nervousness and have trouble falling asleep, I don%26#039;t recommend it at all if you are running. Get plenty of carbs, try pasta right before and you should have the fuel you need good luck.



What does caffeine do to your heart rate?

Caffeine causes heart rate to increase. I%26#039;m not a doctor or anything, but it probably wouldn%26#039;t help much for sports performance because when your heart is already pumping fast, it doesn%26#039;t benefit from the extra boost. Plus, there%26#039;s a caffeine %26quot;crash%26quot; after a few hours.

1. Why do you think your heart rate stays high even after you閳ユ獫e stopped exercising?

2. If you閳ユ獫e ever watched a really scary movie, or have felt very nervous, you might have noticed that your heart is beating fast even though you haven閳ユ獩 been exercising. Why do you think this is?



1. Why do you think your heart rate stays high even after you閳ユ獫e stopped exercising?

1A.Because it can%26#039;t stop instantly, it takes a small amount of time to slow down.



2A.Because your body is reacting to the image seen in the brain, in other words. everybody%26#039;s body had eyes %26gt;_%26gt;



1. Why do you think your heart rate stays high even after you閳ユ獫e stopped exercising?

1. It%26#039;s called the recovery period--You should ALWAYS do a cooldown, like walking around a track, or walking on a treadmill at a slow speed for five minutes upon finishing your cardio workout.



2. Adrenaline-it%26#039;s the chemical thet fuels the fight or flight response.

You are describing something that sounds like NSR - Normal Sinus Rhythm in dogs. Almost every dog has this, and it is completely normal.



Pulsus paradoxus is a decrease in pulse pressure during inspiration and an increase in pulse pressure during expiration. This is a normal occurrence in animals, but, it is usually too subtle to observe on physical examination.

I took a 10 second test of my pulse and it was 15 my doctor said my heart beat was fast what does this mean. heart disease heart attack possibilities????



What does it mean to have a fast resting heart rate?

Most commonly, a fast resting heart rate just means that you are out of shape. Your heart is working very hard to do common activities because of the lack of strenuous activity or exercise. If you are not out of shape, you may have actual heart problems, but your dr. probably would have given you a Cardio referral.

Why do i wake up with a fast heart rate if i don't drink?

sometimes i wake up during the night and my heart is racing as if i%26#039;m having a panic attack. it takes ages for it to return to normal regardless of how much i try to calm down. i don%26#039;t remember having had a nightmare or an especially %26#039;active%26#039; dream prior to waking, although it%26#039;s possible i did and just don%26#039;t remember.



a similar thing used to happen to me when i drank alcohol, but i%26#039;ve since stopped drinking so it can%26#039;t be alchohol-related. i eat a stable, healthy diet and exercise daily. does anyone know why this is happening?? i have a normal heart beat during the day...



Why do i wake up with a fast heart rate if i don%26#039;t drink?

hopefully it is nothing serious. However, if you answer yes to any of the following when your heart is racing, then you should see a doc:



chest pain, shortness of breath, lightheadedness.



Why do i wake up with a fast heart rate if i don%26#039;t drink?

I am 39 and female and i have same it might be related to hypoglycaemia or a high level of cortisol. Anyways reduce stress and worry.Is you bloodpressure not too high?



Why do i wake up with a fast heart rate if i don%26#039;t drink?

Your idea of having nightmares is my best guess. And a lot of the time people do not remember their dreams. When in REM sleep, your mind is organizing memories and producing dreams; any thought [that your brain creates during sleep] can trigger your heart beat to race.



If you don%26#039;t drink? Do you mean not drinking enough water:



Your heart may have to work extra hard to pump blood to your body and brain if you are lacking fluids in your diet (Remember that a lot of your blood is made up of water). Also, for different people [maybe for you!] a lack of water or even something you ate or drank right before bed, can cause a reaction in the body where your veins will



Shrink and become narrow: blood travels much faster.



or



Widen: it is harder for the heart to pump blood when the blood vessels are wider.



Create a journal and record what you have eaten, drank, and any physical/mental activites you participate in 8-10 hours before bed. This may help you come up with your own answer to you problem!



Why do i wake up with a fast heart rate if i don%26#039;t drink?

see a doc, that happens to me when i retain fluids...
