So, by definition, your nephew has bradycardia. Some people (often athletes) have heart rates this slow normally. Bradycardias can also be caused by abnormalities in the heart's conduction system. Electrocardiograms are often done to diagnose the particular type of rhythm that is associated with the slow heart rate. Some of these rhythms are benign and unless your nephew was having symptoms (fainting, shortness of breath, chest pain, etc.), he would not receive treatment for them. Other rhythms can be more concerning and will require a pacemaker.<br><b>References : </b><br> Bradycardia is defined as a heart rate below 60 beats per minute.

Normal heart rate is 60-90, so the 50s is not really to low. Some people just naturally have a low heart rate. Talk to a doctor.<br><b>References : </b><br> Bradycardia simply translates to slow heart rate. Normal heart rate is 60-90, so the 50s is not really to low.

They tend to have slower resting heart rates. Is he symptomatic? does he get dizzy-pass out? If not, I wouldnt worry much. Does his heart rate increase some with activity? if yes, thats good. Treatment could be a pacemaker if he has symptoms.<br><b>References : </b><br> it depends-is he an athlete? They tend to have slower resting heart rates.
