Pre-takeoff checklist
I just got my first ECG and had to google the 'finding' on it. Going in for the AME visit later this week.
From a FAA Medical Bulletin, I found this (snip from an article)
So I'm curious. I'm currently within the 50-59 that is allowed to be cleared by the AME, but I'm trying to increase my miles on my bike. Let's say hypothetically next time I do an ECG my beats per minute is under 50. What does it mean by 'able to mount a ventricular response'?

If the airman has one of the above
diagnoses on the ECG, you may “clear”
the airman for medical certification. We
will just note this for our records.
If an airman has a sinus bradycardia
rate of less than 50 beats per minute,
we would like you to take a history,
exercise the airman in place, and repeat
the ECG. If able to mount a ventricular
response, she may be cleared.
