Ways to detect heart disease

Heart disease is an umbrella term for a range of conditions that affect the heart. This includes irregular heartbeat (arrhythmias), coronary artery disease, angina, cardiomyopathies, and heart failure. Getting diagnosed with heart disease is not particularly straightforward, as heart disease may not be apparent to patients as soon as they contract it; symptoms may begin manifesting once the disease is quite far along. That is why detection is so important.

Heart rhythm monitoring - How are abnormal rhythms detected?

An abnormal heart rhythm, known medically as an arrhythmia, is a condition where the heart beats too fast, too slowly, or in an irregular pattern. Our heart rhythm is usually controlled by electrical signals that coordinate the pumping action of the heart, ensuring blood is distributed efficiently around the body. However, when these signals are disrupted, arrhythmias can occur, potentially leading to symptoms and complications. This article will help you understand more about abnormal heart rhythms, the different types, causes, and when to seek medical attention.
