    This document describes various types of arrhythmias, including their typical heart rates, rhythms, characteristics of the P wave, PR interval, QRS complex, and common interventions. Arrhythmias include normal sinus rhythm, premature atrial complexes, premature junctional complexes, premature ventricular complexes, sinus bradycardia, sinus tachycardia, supraventricular tachycardia, atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, junctional rhythm, idioventricular rhythm, ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, first degree AV block, second degree AV block types I and II, and third degree AV block. Each arrhythmia has distinguishing features and may require interventions such as medications, cardio
