arrhythmia

Arrhythmia refers to an irregular heartbeat, where the heart may beat too fast, too slow, or with an uneven rhythm. This condition can result from various factors, such as heart disease, stress, or electrolyte imbalances. While some arrhythmias are harmless, others can lead to serious complications, including stroke or heart failure. Symptoms may include palpitations, dizziness, or chest discomfort. Diagnosis typically involves an electrocardiogram (ECG), and treatment options range from lifestyle changes and medication to medical procedures. It’s important to consult a healthcare provider if you notice any unusual heart patterns or symptoms.
