Arrhythmia is diagnosed when the normal heart rate changes. That is, the heart starts to beat faster or slower, or these phenomena alternate with each other. Any jokes with a heart are bad. But what exactly is the sinus arrhythmia of the heart dangerous, it is unlikely that a person far from medicine will be able to explain. The most terrible thing is that there are also such patients who completely ignore the violation of the heartbeat, and thereby expose themselves to mortal danger.
Is sinus arrhythmia dangerous?
The heart of every healthy person works on the same principle. It is affected by electrical impulses, and as a result of it it tenses, then relaxes. Arrhythmia is called a phenomenon when the muscle begins to contract erratically.
If you feel that the heart is working somehow wrong, but then everything has returned to normal, there is no cause for concern. To think about whether this is a dangerous sinus arrhythmia, it is necessary if anxiety sensations appear regularly or worse, do not disappear at all.
Sinus arrhythmia is a kind of heartbeat disorder in which the difference between periodic muscle contractions is more than 10% of the average length of the gap between them. The frequency of contractions can grow on inhalation and fall on exhalation - respiratory arrhythmia - or not depend on respiration - non-breathing arrhythmia.
Such phenomena sometimes indicate problems in the work of internal organs and systems. It also happens that heart failure is developing against the background of arrhythmia. Moreover, the degree of its expression can be quite severe.
What exactly is a sinus arrhythmia?
Sinus arrhythmia is undulating. Simply put, at one point the body can experience acute oxygen starvation, and in another - feel great. Such jumps are often detrimental to the brain, lungs,
Very often, specialists come across cases when patients with arrhythmia suddenly lose consciousness. And if it suddenly happens, when a person is driving, the consequences can turn out to be the most sad.
The most terrible thing is that if you do not do anything with the problem, at one point it can trigger a stroke of the brain, pulmonary thromboembolism , cardiac arrest and, in the end, a fatal outcome.
