Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Idioventricular rhythm is considered an escape rhythm, which occurs when the heart's primary pacemakers fail, and the ventricles themselves initiate impulses to maintain cardiac output. It can also be an agonal rhythm, indicating a dying heart, but it is not classified as an irritable rhythm, which refers to rhythms originating from a focus that is firing more rapidly than normal, often leading to premature contractions.
