Cardiac arrhythmia is a disturbance in the rhythm of heart contractions. With arrhythmia, the regularity of heart contractions is disrupted, the heart rate changes, and extrasystoles occur.

There are several types of arrhythmias:

1. Sinus arrhythmia is an increase or decrease in rhythm due to changes in the tone of the vagus nerve.
2. Extrasystole is a premature contraction of the heart.
3. Atrial fibrillation is chaotic contractions of the atria.
4. Ventricular tachycardia is a rapid ventricular rhythm.

The causes of arrhythmias are varied - from congenital conduction disorders to acquired heart diseases. Diagnostics is based on ECG, ECHO-CG, HM-ECG and other methods. Treatment depends on the type of arrhythmia and is aimed at restoring a normal rhythm or controlling the heart rate.

Cardiac arrhythmia is any change in the rhythm or frequency of the heart that results in an irregular, fast or slow heartbeat.

The reasons for the development of arrhythmia can be very diverse: stress, use of alcohol, tobacco or drugs, as well as the presence of certain diseases such as heart failure, ischemic
