nadkomorowych

Nadkomorowych is a Polish term that translates to "supraventricular" in English, primarily used in a medical context, particularly in cardiology. It refers to structures or events originating above the ventricles of the heart.

The most common application of the term is in describing supraventricular arrhythmias, which are abnormal heart rhythms that start in the atria (the upper chambers of the heart) or the atrioventricular node (the junction between the atria and ventricles). Examples include atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, and supraventricular tachycardia. These conditions are distinguished from ventricular arrhythmias, which originate in the ventricles.

In broader anatomical terms, "nadkomorowe" can refer to any structure located superior to the ventricles. This could include the atria themselves, the great vessels entering the atria, or other cardiac or surrounding structures situated in that region. The precise meaning is usually clarified by the context in which the term is used. Diagnosis and treatment of supraventricular conditions are key aspects of cardiac care.
