What is a missed beat/pause in the heart called and what is it caused from?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Extra systolic Pause: The pause following a premature beat can be due to resetting of the natural pacemaker by the premature beat or by failure of the next impulse to go through because the pathway is still not fully recovered from the previous beat
