Overview
Electrocardiogram
- Rate: Less than 60
- Rhythm: Regular
- P waves: Upright, consistent, and normal in morphology and duration
- PR Interval: Between 0.12-0.21 seconds in duration
- QRS complex: Less than 0.12 seconds in width, and consistent in morphology
- Early repolarization is accentuated in the setting of sinus bradycardia
- Sinus arrhythmia often accompanies sinus brdycardia
EKG Examples
Shown below is an EKG depicting sinus bradycardia. The heart rate is around 40 bpm. It also shows PR prolongation and decrease in QRS complex.

Shown below is an EKG example of sinus bradycardia. The heart rate is around 45 bpm. It also shows PR prolongation and a shortening of the QRS complexes.
