What is a Heart Rhythm Disturbance?
Heart rhythm disturbances, also known as abnormal heart rhythms or arrhythmias, means that you don’t have a normal heartbeat rhythm. Your heart isn’t necessarily beating too fast or too slow; it means your heart isn’t beating at a consistent rhythm. Instead of maintaining a constant beat, your heart may feel like it almost skipped or even added a beat.
You might not even notice you have a heart rhythm disturbance, but sometimes you might notice your heart racing or beating slowly. While an irregular heartbeat might not be an emergency, it’s always a good idea to get it checked out by a medical professional. Urgency Room physicians can examine your heart in less time than you’d spend in the emergency room’s waiting room.
Symptoms can be subtle to serious, so take note if you experience a pounding in your chest, dizziness, fainting, shortness of breath, chest pain, fatigue or the feeling of a fluttering heartbeat. Although you might not even notice these symptoms and they’ll only make themselves known during a physical exam by a physician.
What Causes Disturbances in Your Heart Rhythm?
You might never see an arrhythmia coming. You might have always had a healthy heart, but there are a number of reasons you could have an irregular heartbeat, including:
- Heart Disease
- Heart Surgery
- Heart Attack
- Electrolyte Imbalance
All of these reasons can weaken or affect your heart muscle, throwing it out of sync with a previously regular heartbeat. Other types of heart rhythm disorders exist and should be assessed by a physician. Some arrhythmias include:
Premature Ventricular Contractions
Also known as “skipped” heartbeats, PVCs are the most common type of heart rhythm disturbance. If you notice these happening often, consider cutting out caffeine, reducing stress and seeing a physician.
Atrial Fibrillation
The irregular contraction of the heart’s upper chambers.
Ventricular Tachycardia
Especially dangerous for people living with heart disease, V-tach is a rapid heart rhythm that starts from the heart’s lower chambers. This hinders the heart’s ability to fill up with enough blood.
Ventricular Fibrillation
An arrhythmia that occurs when the lower chambers of the heart quiver and can’t fill the heart with blood or pump blood to the body.
Arrhythmia Treatments
Treatment for heart rhythm disturbances varies depending on the severity and type of arrhythmia you have. There are a variety of medications, lifestyle changes and even surgeries that can help alleviate or resolve an irregular heartbeat. Some types of changes you can make on your own include restricting your caffeine intake, quitting smoking, limiting your alcohol intake and restricting activities that make your heart rhythm disturbances flare up.
