abundant sympathetic stimulation - increases rate of ventricular electrical impulses. Note that this
rhythm is often unstable and can move quickly to either asystole or ventricular tachycardia (VT).

Agonal rhythm - typically an extreme ventricular bradycardia -is considered an end stage cardiac
thythm with asystole quickly ensuing. The QRS complexes tend to be very wide and flattened. The

Atrial flutter results from the development of a reentry circuit within the atria generating a loop th:

Atrial Fibrillation
Atrial fibrillation is a chaotic rhythm with recognizable QRS complexes. The chaotic rhythm pattern

formation is particularly significant after 48 hours.
