A member asked:
What type of tachycardia would it be with ans damage or dysfuncton?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Usual? Why? Heart: rate is controlled 24/7 by ANS. Without ANS input, resting heart rate is mid-range, ~110-120 BPM, i.e. tachycardia. Common lower heart rates a result of dominant parasympathetic release of acetylcholine neurotransmitter ↓ing atrial heart muscle self-stimulation rate & intensity of contraction; opposite the response to sympathetic norepineprhine/epinephrine release onto atrial & ventricular cells.
