Rapid heart rate refers to the condition that the heart rate exceeds 100 beats per minute, or when it is quiet, the heart rate is more than 80-90 beats per minute, and it will exceed 100 beats after an activity. This condition is actually a heart rate deviation.
If the heartbeat is particularly fast and accompanied by obvious discomfort, the following measures can be taken to deal with it:
1. Rest: You should rest in a sitting or supine position in a quiet environment;
2. Heart rate monitoring: At that time, it is necessary to monitor the heartbeat, pay attention to whether the frequency of the heartbeat is regular and how many times it can beat, which is more important for judging the condition;
3. Stimulation of the vagus nerve: If it is an arrhythmia attack, especially in patients who have been diagnosed with supraventricular tachycardia in the past, it is characterized by sudden and sudden tachycardia, and the symptoms are more pronounced with the heart beats faster and feels uncomfortable. At this time, the vagus nerve can be stimulated to suppress the excessively fast heart rate. Common methods, such as pressing the eyeball or stimulating nausea and vomiting, can excite the vagus nerve, which may relieve the onset of supraventricular tachycardia to a certain extent;
4. Seek medical attention in time: If the heartbeat is very fast, and this kind of phenomenon occurs frequently, it is still necessary to go to the hospital to determine whether the heart rate is normal sinus tachycardia, atrial tachycardia, atrial fibrillation or supraventricular tachycardia, the only way to better determine the cause and prevent recurrence.
Plus1Health has a free heart rate app “Heart Rate“, which can be downloaded and used in the mobile app store. There are also sleep recorder devices that monitor heart rate, breathing rate and more.
