Arrhythmias and Irregular Heartbeats
Understanding Irregular Heart Rhythms
An arrhythmia occurs when the heart beats too fast, too slowly, or irregularly.
Patients may experience:
- Heart palpitations
- Fluttering or skipped beats
- Dizziness
- Lightheadedness
- Fatigue
- Shortness of breath
- Fainting or near-fainting
Because irregular heart rhythms may occur intermittently, appropriate monitoring can help provide a clearer picture of what is happening.
Heart Rhythm Evaluation and Monitoring
Depending on your symptoms and medical history, services may include:
- Electrocardiogram (EKG)
- Holter Monitor
- Loop Monitor Implant
- Echocardiogram
- Cardiovascular evaluation
- Ongoing rhythm monitoring
Your provider will determine which type of testing or monitoring is appropriate for your individual needs.
