Arrhythmia is a potentially life-threatening condition that can cause serious complications such as heart failure, stroke, sudden cardiac arrest, and myocardial infarction. If left untreated, arrhythmia can even result in sudden death. According to Dr. Ngo Chi Hieu from the Department of Cardiology and Interventional Cardiology at Hanoi French Hospital, arrhythmia is often a symptom of underlying dangerous diseases that are overlooked by many people.
The typical signs of arrhythmia include an abnormal heartbeat that is either too fast (over 100 beats/minute), too slow (under 60 beats/minute), or irregular. Tachycardia, or a fast heartbeat, is especially dangerous for patients. The causes of arrhythmia can range from cardiovascular abnormalities to genetic factors, with certain conditions like congenital heart disease, coronary artery disease, and cardiomyopathy increasing the risk.
People with metabolic disorders such as high blood pressure, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, thyroid disease, substance abuse, and sleep apnea are also at a higher risk of developing arrhythmia. Symptoms can vary from mild to severe and may include chest pain, palpitations, dizziness, fatigue
