Usually less than 60 beats per minute, bradycardia is the disorder whereby the heart beats slower than normal. Although symptoms may not usually follow from it, severe cases might induce vertigo, tiredness, dyspnoea, or even fainting.
Ageing, cardiac disease, hypothyroidism, electrolyte abnormalities, or several drugs, including beta-blockers, can all contribute to this disorder. Usually not a cause for concern, athletes and physically active people often have naturally low heart rates.
Along with other procedures like Holter monitoring or an echocardiogram if necessary, a diagnosis calls for an electrocardiogram (ECG) to gauge cardiac rhythm. Treatments rely on the underlying cause. Should bradycardia result from medication, changing the dosage could be beneficial. In severe situations, a pacemaker may be necessary to regulate the heart.
Changes in lifestyle, including keeping a good diet, working out regularly, and controlling stress, can promote heart health. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience symptoms such as fainting or vertigo. Early diagnosis and treatment guarantee improved long-term health by helping to avoid consequences such as heart failure or cardiac arrest.
