Inappropriate Sinus Tachycardia (IST)

A one-page care plan for patients with Inappropriate Sinus Tachycardia (IST), covering Purpose, Prevention & Protection, Education & Expectations, Nutrition, Next Steps & Numbers, Consistency, Indications and Lifestyle & Long-Term Success.

In this plan

  1. Purpose, Prevention & Protection

    • I know IST starts in my heart's normal pacemaker; its rate is faster than needed.
    • I know the cause is not fully understood; heart-rate control signals may work differently.
    • I help rule out anemia, thyroid disease, dehydration, infection, and medicine effects.
    • I know IST is usually not life-threatening, but new symptoms still need attention.
