The defense threw a lot of cardiac vocabulary at the jury, and seemed to deliberately muddy things up. Nelson said Floyd died from arrhythmia caused by hardening of the arteries and high blood pressure, in doctor-speak. Uh, that's simply not how a myo cardial infarc works.

I had bpm over 174 a few years back, had no idea, nor did I feel anything. Incidentally discovered as I went to see my doctor about an enlarged mole. every visit, with weight and bpm readings.... every one went into a high freak out mode.
I had no idea of what a normal bpm should be. Hypertension. seems like everyone I know has hypertension.
Thanks for the detailed info, and distinctions... although I have to say, your descriptor should be bookmarked and used as a reference.
