The tenth edition, published in 2010 and edited by Cynthia M. Kahn, was the first to contain images. [2] It included radiographs, illustrations, and photomicrographs, as well as new chapters, including one on African hedgehogs. [2] The eleventh edition, published in 2016, had over 400 contributing authors. [10]
The Merck Manuals (outside the U.S. and Canada: The MSD Manuals; Chinese: 默沙东诊疗手册; pinyin: Mòshādōng Zhěnliáo Shǒucè) are medical references published by the American pharmaceutical company Merck & Co. (known as MSD outside the United States and Canada), that cover a wide range of medical topics, including disorders, tests, diagnoses, and drugs.
Idioventricular means “relating to or affecting the cardiac ventricle alone” and refers to any ectopic ventricular arrhythmia. [1] Accelerated idioventricular arrhythmias are distinguished from ventricular rhythms with rates less than 40 ( ventricular escape ) and those faster than 120 ( ventricular tachycardia ). [ 2 ]

Respiratory arrhythmia (or respiratory sinus arrhythmia) [39] [40] is directly caused by the central respiratory rhythm, which tracks the respiratory rate across a range of frequencies and is a major cause of heart rate variability in humans. [37]
Anticoagulants: To prevent embolization.. Beta blockers: To block the effects of certain hormones on the heart to slow the heart rate.. Calcium Channel Blockers: Help slow the heart rate by blocking the number of electrical impulses that pass through the AV node into the lower heart chambers (ventricles).
An idioventricular rhythm is a cardiac rhythm characterized by a rate of <50 beats per minute (bpm), absence of conducted P waves and widening of the QRS complex. [1] In cases where the heart rate is between 50 and 110 bpm, it is known as accelerated idioventricular rhythm and ventricular tachycardia if the rate exceeds 120 bpm.
Antiarrhythmic agents, also known as cardiac dysrhythmia medications, are a class of drugs that are used to suppress abnormally fast rhythms (tachycardias), such as atrial fibrillation, supraventricular tachycardia and ventricular tachycardia.
