max heartrate cooldown

1 minute cooldown from a 200 bpm heart rate. enlarged ecg display.

This girl gets her heart racing super fast! Clear beats and 3-lead ecg machine readout.

Her oxygen saturation dips down into the upper 80’s and takes a bit to get back to 98.

Fast heartbeat after exercise. Enjoy!

Pressure in my heart using a bed

The bed makes every movement of my heart visible, and the ecg shows what exactly is happening in there. Lots of skips and irregularities to enjoy!

[dan13579]

SVT episode after pressure. First time I got SVT AFTER pressure, not during it, and it felt AMAZING! Sound starts at around 0:40. Enjoy!

Visible carotid pulse with ECG and heartbeat. Didn’t think my carotid pulse would be this visible lol

[dan13579]

Very weird VT run after pressure. Never seen such a pattern on ECG before, so it was interesting to see. Is it even VT? Enjoy and let me know what you think!

[dan13579]

Very irregular heartbeat with pressure and breathplay. I always love to see my heart going nuts. Can anyone recognize what these beats seem to be? Enjoy!

Forcing the little guy to keep beating out of control, standing still and calm with a "resting" rate of like 180+, because I'm the weirdo who actually loves the feeling like my heart is going to explode 😆

While brushing my teeth I felt it start skipping so this was right after I finished up, but only caught 3 additional skips before they went away and it was back to steadily racing like crazy. Despite all the chaos though, somehow my murmur isn't that loud tonight?

Poor thing is undeniably still under huge stress and working way too hard, it just wasn't meant to handle doing this continuously, and that's what makes it incredibly hot 🫀💕

The effect of pilates on a girl’s heart.

Super Weird

Very weird heartbeat with heavy pressure. The massive spike at 0:24 accompanied by a loud heartbeat is interesting, does anyone know what that is?

[dan13579]

Very strange rhythm with heavy pressure. The part where it got real slow towards the end was especially interesting. Really felt amazing though :)

[dan13579]

Got a new chest x-ray today!

[dan13579]

A compilation of VT runs that I got while applying pressure. Heavy pressure on the apex+breath play seems to cause some unbelievable results!

The VT runs last up to 5 seconds long, and it was amazing to see on the ECG my heart just quivering in my chest for that long!

My ideas on how pressure works

* Warning: I am not a professional, this is just a speculation based on info found online *

While looking up about commotio cordis, I learned that mechanical stress on cardiac muscle causes it to discharge an electrical signal, disrupting the electrical activity of the heart.

I thought that since pressure is causing mechanical stress on the heart, the reason why pressure causes irregular heartbeats follows a similar principle.

Irregular beats can be divided into two categories, and I will speculate why pressure causes each type of irregular beat.

1. Atrial ectopic beat

These are caused by abnormal electrical signals from the atrium. Pressure disrupts blood flow in the heart. And I think because the walls of the atria are thin, disruptions in blood flow can cause abnormal stretching of the atria walls, causing them to release abnormal electrical signals. These cause atrial ectopic beats, such as PACs, and if you’re lucky, SVT.

2. Ventricular ectopic beat

These are caused by abnormal electrical signals coming from the ventricles. Normally I don’t get much of these with light pressure, so I think that you need heavy pressure to create the sufficient mechanical stress to make the ventricles misfire. This causes PVCs and VT.

I also think that by controlling the amount and location of pressure, you can control what kind of irregular heartbeat you get. With light pressure near the base of the heart, to screw with blood flow, you get PACs and SVT. With heavy pressure on the ventricles(near the apex), you get PVCs and VT.

These are just my thoughts on how pressure works. This may be totally wrong, so don’t take it too seriously.

Visible heartbeat with ECG

There’s a skip in there somewhere :)

Last one for today, some weird rhythms followed by ventricular escape beats, feel free to correct me here ;)
