Arrhythmias or heart rhythm problems are experienced in the world. Most people with an abnormal heart rhythm can lead a normal life if it is properly diagnosed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The main types of arrhythmia are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1.atrial fibrillation (AF): this is the most common type, where the heart beats irregularly and faster than normal;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2.supraventricular tachycardia: episodes of abnormally fast heart rate at rest;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3.bradycardia : the heart beats more slowly than normal;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
4.heart block : the heart beats more slowly than normal and can cause people to collapse;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
5.ventricular fibrillation : a rare, rapid and disorganised rhythm of heartbeats that rapidly leads to loss of consciousness and sudden death if not treated immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Arrhythmias can affect all age groups, but atrial fibrillation is more common in older people. Drinking alcohol in excess or being overweight increases your likelihood of developing atrial fibrillation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
