English term or phrase: Pulsatile heart rate
This phrase appears in Medical equipment operating manual in the following sentences.
The heart rate reported by the IntelliRate feature may reflect either the electrical or pulsatile heart rate.
A pulsatile heart rate may be reported by the IntelliRate feature during ASYSTOLE if the patient is on a cardiac assist device.
I'd like to know what this phrase means and 定訳(if any).

脈拍数
Explanation:
pulsatile heart rate = 脈拍数
electrical heart rate = 心拍数

http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/心拍数
心拍数(しんぱくすう、英語 heart rate)は、一定の時間内に心臓が拍動する回数をいう。通常は1分間の拍動の数(bpm、beats per minute)をいう。心臓が血液を送り出す際に、動脈に脈拍が生じるので、この回数を数えると脈拍数(みゃくはくすう)あるいは単に脈拍と呼ぶ。

注意すべきことは、心拍数と脈拍数は脈拍欠損や不整脈存在下では必ず一致するものではない。しかし、大部分の場合、一致している。

What Is the Difference in a Pulse & a Heart Rate?

Both a pulse and a heart rate are generated from the same place: the apex of the heart, located at the bottom of the heart muscle. Since they both have the same origin, in healthy individuals the heart rate will indicate the measurement of the pulse rate--the numbers should be the same. However, there can be times when heart rate does not match pulse rate. Understanding the workings of the cardiovascular system can be fascinating.

What is Heart Rate?
The heart is a muscle under the control of the autonomic nervous system, according to Merck.com. The heart is the pump of the cardiovascular system of the body. Each time the heart contracts, or pumps, it pushes blood through the various veins, arteries and capillaries of the system. Heart rate is measured in beats per minute or bpm. The number of contractions, or beats, each minute is a measurement that the medical professionals use for diagnosis and tracking of medical conditions.

What is Pulse?
Pulse is the mechanical generation of the flow of the blood that is pulsing through the arterial portion of the cardiovascular system. Pulse is caused by the consistent contractions of the heart. Pulse can be measured in beats per minute and is often used to determine the heart rate.

When Heart Rate and Pulse Do Not Match
Abnormal heart conditions called arrhythmias can occur causing the heart to contract irregularly with beats that are too fast or too slow. Each normal contraction of the heart is generated at the apex (bottom) of the heart by an electrical impulse that passes through the heart tissue. When there are too many electrical impulses produced or when the electrical impulses are being generated from a place within the heart other than the apex, the heart is not able to contract efficiently. When it cannot contract correctly, not all of the blood is being pushed out of the heart, which means that not every contraction is generating a pulse beat. Thus, heart rate will not match pulse rate. Please note that arrhythmias are medical emergencies.

規則正しい一定のリズムで触れる脈が整脈で、リズムが不規則に乱れている脈は全て不整脈です。
また、心拍はあっても抹消動脈へ全て脈波として伝わらず、心拍数と脈拍数が違うことがあります。
これを脈拍欠損といいます。

Field triage of the pulseless trauma patient.

HYPOTHESIS: Trauma patients who are pulseless at the scene of injury and whose electrical cardiac activity is less than 40 beats/min cannot be revived.

RESULTS: ...No patient (0/212) with electrical asystole survived. Five of 134 patients with an initial electrical heart rate between 1 and 39 beats/min survived long enough to reach the intensive care unit but died within 48 hours (4 died within 24 hours). No patient survived to leave the hospital if the initial electrical heart rate was less than 40 beats/min. All 16 survivors had an initial heart rate of 40 beats/min or greater.

CONCLUSION: Trauma victims who are pulseless and have asystole or agonal electrical cardiac activity (heart rate <40 beats/min) should be pronounced dead at the scene of injury.

pulsatile heart rate
心筋による拍動数


Explanation:
電気的な信号によって計る心拍数ではなく、心筋の機械的な動きを計測したもの、という解釈です。
