Answer:

Junctional bradycardia: rate below 40 beats per minute. Junction escape rhythm: rate 40 to 60 beats per minute. Accelerated junctional rhythm: rate of 60 to 100 beats per minute. Junctional tachycardia: rate above 100 beats per minute.

A junctional rhythm is characterized by QRS complexes of morphology identical to that of sinus rhythm without preceding P waves. This rhythm is slower than the expected sinus rate. When this rhythm completely takes over the pacemaker activity of the heart, retrograde P waves and AV dissociation can be seen.
