SINUS_NORMAL
Technical documentation
Normal Sinus Rhythm
Normal cardiac rhythm generated at the sinoatrial node (Keith-Flack), with intact downstream conduction: Bachmann's bundle to the left atrium, internodal tracts, AV nodal delay, His-Purkinje system, and synchronized ventricular activation.
Also known as: Normal Sinus Rhythm · ritmo sinusal · RS · normal sinus rhythm · NSR · ECG normal · ritmo sinusal normal
What parameters does the model use?
The following values are applied by the simulation engine to this entity. They govern activation kinematics in the 3D model and the real-time synthesis of the 12-lead electrocardiogram.
What parameters does the model use?
| Parameter | Model value |
|---|---|
| Mechanism | Automatismo |
| Impulse origin | Sinoatrial node (SA node) |
| Modeled rate | 60–100 bpm (default 72) |
| Regularity | Regular |
| P wave | Sinus (upright in I, II, aVF) |
| PR interval | 120–200 ms (default 160) |
| QRS duration | 90 ms |
| QRS morphology | Normal (narrow) |
| AV conduction | 1:1 AV conduction |
| Severity | Benign |
Which leads should be evaluated?
The catalog marks as primary diagnostic leads II, I, aVF. Positive P wave in leads I, II, and aVF; negative in aVR.
In the simulator, these leads are highlighted on the 12-channel tracing and corresponding vectors are rendered on the 3D model, displaying electrical changes and anatomical origin simultaneously.
Frequently asked clinical questions
How is Normal Sinus Rhythm identified on the 12-lead ECG?
Normal cardiac rhythm generated at the sinoatrial node (Keith-Flack), with intact downstream conduction: Bachmann's bundle to the left atrium, internodal tracts, AV nodal delay, His-Purkinje system, and synchronized ventricular activation. The characteristic diagnostic waveforms are generated in real time across the simulated 12-lead tracing.
Which leads are critical for diagnostic confirmation?
The primary diagnostic leads are II, I, aVF. Positive P wave in leads I, II, and aVF; negative in aVR. In the simulator, these channels highlight the correlation with anatomical vectors.
What is the underlying electrophysiological or anatomical mechanism?
It originates from altered conduction in the SA_NODE, mediated by automatismo.
How can this condition be explored in the 3D simulator?
MioAtlas offers direct deep-link reproducibility with preconfigured parameters, allowing full 3D cardiac rotation and lead vector inspection.
How do you open this configuration?
