Aritmie

Aritmia è un ritmo cardiaco anormale. Il battito del cuore in un adulto a riposo è compresa tra 60 e 100 battiti al minuto. Quando si aumenta la tachicardia sinusale in modo significativo è considerato, quando un battito cardiaco rallenta, è bradicardia sinusale. In tachicardia, il cuore sperimenta una forte accelerazione a causa di uno sforzo fisico tremendo. Quando alterazioni si verificano nel numero di battiti ma non in frequenza, si ritiene aritmia cardiaca.
