For many White people, particularly those who live in White-centric communities, we never have to consider our own racial identity. I cannot tell you how many times Iâve heard White people called upon to describe their race only to have them say, âIâve never really thought about it. I guess Iâm just normal.â Hell, Iâm pretty sure I was talking this way not too long ago.
Sinus rhythm. A sinus rhythm is any cardiac rhythm where depolarisation of the cardiac muscle begins at the sinus node. It is characterised by the presence of correctly oriented P waves on the electrocardiogram (ECG). Sinus rhythm is necessary, but not sufficient, for normal electrical activity within the heart.
The normal heart rate and rhythm is regulated by an electrical node in the heart called the sinus node. It creates a regular heart beat with a distinctive pattern on the ECG. In some, especially younger people, the sinus rate varies and is slightly irregular.
