Heart Disease and Abnormal Heart Rhythm (Arrhythmia) Arrhythmias may be caused by many different factors, including: 1  Coronary artery disease. 2  Electrolyte imbalances in your blood (such as sodium or potassium). 3  Changes in your heart muscle.  Injury from a heart 1  attack. Healing process after heart surgery.  Irregular heart rhythms can also occur in normal, healthy hearts.

What Causes an Arrhythmia? What Causes an Arrhythmia? An arrhythmia can occur if the electrical signals that control the heartbeat are delayed or blocked. This can happen if the special nerve cells that produce electrical signals don't work properly. An arrhythmia also can occur if another part of the heart starts to produce electrical signals.

Overview of Arrhythmias Arrhythmias and conduction disorders are caused by abnormalities in the generation or conduction of these electrical impulses or both. Any heart disorder, including congenital abnormalities of structure (eg, accessory atrioventricular connection) or function (eg, hereditary ion channelopathies), can disturb rhythm.

Tachycardia Pathophysiology of Cardiac Causes of Tachycardia. Cardiac causes of tachyarrhythmias may either be a result of disturbance in the formation of an electrical impulse (i.e. abnormality of the sinoatrial node) or an alteration of the conduction of the same (e.g. bundle branch block, Wolf-Parkinson-White syndrome).

- Underlying medical conditions may be the cause of heart palpitations. These include: overactive thyroid; anemia; low blood sugar; low potassium; dehydration; high temperature and fever; loss of blood; shock; low oxygen or carbon dioxide levels in the blood; Hormone changes. Hormonal changes are another possible cause of heart palpitations. Changes in hormone levels may result from: menstrual periods; pregnancy; menopause; Heart conditions. Palpitations can also be caused by heart conditions, including: arrhythmias (abnormal heart rhythms) coronary artery disease or a heart attack; heart valve problems; heart failure

Dysrhythmia External and internal forces can cause dysrhythmia. External factors include exhaustion, overexertion, emotional stress (such as Annie's campaign speech), cigarette smoking, drinking alcohol, and ingesting stimulants such as caffeine, decongestants, and cocaine.

2018 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code I49.9 An arrhythmia is a problem with the rate or rhythm of your heartbeat. It means that your heart beats too quickly, too slowly, or with an irregular pattern. When the heart beats faster than normal, it is called tachycardia. When the heart beats too slowly, it is called bradycardia. The most common type of arrhythmia is atrial fibrillation, which causes an irregular and fast heart beat. Many factors can affect your heart's rhythm, such as having had a heart attack, smoking, congenital heart defects, and stress.

Cardiac Arrhythmias The major risk factors for atrial fibrillation are age, high blood pressure, heart valve abnormalities, diabetes, and heart failure. A-V block or heart block - In this family of arrhythmias, there is some problem conducting the heartbeat signal from the sinus node to the ventricles.

Types of Arrhythmias A rapid heartbeat (tachycardia) is a type of cardiac arrhythmia. There are a variety of types of rapid cardiac arrhythmias: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is caused by an irregular, rapid quivering of the atria, the upper chambers of the heart.

Causes of Atrial Flutter Causes of Atrial Flutter Atrial flutter causes and the causes of other types of arrhythmia can vary from patient to patient. Atrial flutter most often occurs as a result of the normal aging of the heart. Rarely is it a result of a birth defect. Whenever the heart is damaged and scar may form, the risk of developing an abnormal heart circuit and arrhythmia increase.

- Types of rapid heartbeats. A rapid heartbeat (tachycardia) is a type of cardiac arrhythmia. Atrial fibrillation (AF) is caused by an irregular, rapid quivering of the atria, the upper chambers of the heart. AF can result in ineffective pumping of blood, pooling of blood in the atria, and the formation of blood clots.

Tachycardia There is an eclectic collection of causes of tachyarrhythmias. 1  It may be easier to think of these causes as those originating outside the heart (non-cardiac) and those caused by a disease process within the heart (cardiac). However, the specific cause of the tachyarrhythmia (if one exists) is often dependent on the type of tachyarrhythmia the patient has.

Arrhythmia Arrhythmia is another term to describe an abnormal heart rhythm. This frightening heart abnormality can be caused by a number of conditions, including: Atrial Fibrillation Disorganized electrical impulses that cause the heart's two upper chambers to contract very fast and at an irregular pace. Paroxysmal Supraventricular Tachycardia

Types of Arrhythmias There are two types of ventricular arrhythmias, which are abnormal heartbeats in the lower chambers of the heart (called ventricles). The first type, ventricular tachycardia, is a fast heart rhythm that can cause dizziness, palpitations, and fainting.
