It\u2019s the human body\u2019s workhorse, always on and playing a vital role in keeping you alive. The heart works are easy to grasp\u2014it\u2019s a pump, drawing blood in and sending it out.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Checking your pulse rate on your wrist or the side of the neck- is your heart rate, too. The heart rate is measured as the number of times it beats per minute.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">An average resting heart rate for an adult range from 60 to 100 beats per minute. Generally, a lower heart rate at rest implies more efficient heart function and better cardiovascular fitness. For example, a well-trained athlete might have an average resting heart rate closer to 40 beats per minute.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Some medications like beta blockers can slow your heartbeat and lower your resting heart rate.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h1><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">How to check it<\/span><\/h1>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">You can feel your heart rate by putting your first two fingers on the inside of your wrist, the inside of your elbow, the side of your neck, or on the top of your foot. Once you find it, count how many beats you feel in 15 seconds, and multiply that number by 4.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">It would help if you counted the rate per minute and checked whether it was regular, fast, slower, or irregular.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">If it is not regular, meaning detecting a drop beat, or irregular, you need to see your doctor for further assessment to check on the cause.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">In most situations, you may feel a drop beat say about one in ten, which would be insignificant, but missing a beat every six or fewer seconds needs an urgent diagnosis.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">You could also feel these changes by placing your palms against your chest. We refer to this as palpitations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Palpitations are a heightened awareness of your heartbeat<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">For a few reasons, your heart might beat faster, slower, or different than usual.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">An irregular or fluttering heartbeat could be caused by atrial fibrillation (AFib), the most common type of irregular or abnormal heartbeat. Another heart problem, premature ventricular contractions, can create this irregular beat.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Now let\u2019s talk about heart rate variability. Also referred to as HRV<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Heart rate variability is where the amount of time between your heartbeats fluctuates slightly. Even though these fluctuations are undetectable except with specialised devices, they can still indicate current or future health problems, including heart conditions and mental health issues like anxiety and depression.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">In short, there is natural variability in the spacing between heat beats. This is called heart rate variability, or HRV for short.<\/span><\/p>\n<h1><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">What is arrhythmia- A problem with your heart<\/span><\/h1>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">The heart\u2019s regular beating is called \u2018sinus rhythm\u2019 When your heart is beating normally, but the variability between heartbeats is more significant than 0.12 seconds; this is called \u201csinus arrhythmia.\u201d Heart rate variability can sometimes meet the criteria for sinus arrhythmia.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">There is a spot in the heart muscle called the sinus node. Normal sinus rhythm (NSR) is the rhythm that originates from the sinus node and describes the characteristic rhythm of the healthy human heart. The rate in NSR is generally regular but will vary depending on autonomic inputs into the sinus node.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Putting it in another way, when your heart is beating rhythm off, that is called an arrhythmia. There are four major types.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Tachycardia: When your heart beats too fast, usually more than 100 beats a minute<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Bradycardia: When your heart beats too slowly, below 60 beats a minute (unless you\u2019re an athlete)<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Supraventricular arrhythmia: An arrhythmia that starts in your heart\u2019s upper chambers<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Ventricular arrhythmia: An arrhythmia that starts in your heart\u2019s lower chambers<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h1><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Causes of Arrhythmia<\/span><\/h1>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Several things can lead to arrhythmia. These include clogged or hardened arteries, high blood pressure, or issues with your heart\u2019s valves. It also can be the result of trauma from a heart attack. It can happen as you recover from heart surgery, and if your electrolytes are out of balance. For example, if your body has too much or too little potassium.<\/span><\/p>\n<h1><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Treatment<\/span><\/h1>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Treatment for heart arrhythmias depends on whether you have a fast heartbeat (tachycardia) or a slow heartbeat (bradycardia). Some heart arrhythmias do not need treatment. Your doctor may recommend regular checkups to monitor your condition.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Heart arrhythmia treatment is usually only needed if the irregular heartbeat is causing significant symptoms, or if the condition is putting you at risk of more serious heart problems. Treatment for heart arrhythmias may include medications, therapies such as vagal manoeuvres, cardioversion, catheter procedures or heart surgery.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">So, viewers, the message you take home is that you should check your pulse rate and the presence of irregularities, and see your doctors if you detect any changes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">This way you could avoid any cardiac event or stroke. Thank you for viewing this video.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Stay safe and goodbye for now.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">Disclaimer:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">The information contained in this article is for general information purposes only, and whilst the author will endeavour to keep the information up to date and correct, eLanka makes no representations or warranties of any kind, express or implied, about the completeness, accuracy, reliability, suitability or availability with respect to the eLanka website or the information, products, services, or related graphics contained in this article for any purpose.
