The junctional rhythm generally does not need to be treated for this rhythm, but needs to find out the cause and treat it for the cause. Because the junctional rhythm is also called escape rhythm, it is a self-protection mechanism of the human body. Generally, this rhythm is due to the failure of the previous generation of pacemakers, including the sinus node and atrium, to release impulses in time. In order to prevent the risk of cardiac arrest, the pacing points in the atrioventricular junction send impulses to cause contraction of the heart, preventing the risk of new arrest. Therefore, this junctional escape rhythm is beneficial to human health. The key to showing this situation is to find out the cause of this junctional rhythm. To deal with the cause, if the upper pacemaker, including the sinus node and atrium, can never send impulses, it can only rely on this junctional rhythm to control the heart for a long time.
