muscle cells transmit stimulus to the rest of the house, which contracts pushes the blood through your body in a way the rest, the hot normally beat 60 to 70 times 10 minutes. however, if this electrical system gets mixed up, arrhythmia can occur. sometimes the hall then beats a 100 times or more per minute finding. the reason for this is not so easy. cardiologist, you can access, says the causes of arrhythmia can range from stress on thyroid problems to serious congenital heart defects. deep ice, that's the fear that there could be something serious to find. it is not entirely justified. so i always encourage suffers to undergo a thorough check up the up cable. hot specialist, andre is met smith from humbugs university medical center. also says palpitations
2:33 pm
should never be taken lightly, because that's just kinda that basically a late person can tell whether it's a benign or a malignant arrhythmia. so the general recommendation is if you notice your heart is beating irregularly console the dr. i have an e c, g, and get the cost diagnosed. elena nehemiah started experiencing comp qualifications 5 years ago. she was only in the mid twenties. just ask him about the 1st time it happened was during the night. i woke up and sold a pounding, double beat. at 1st i didn't know what was going on with the floor. ha, ha ha. couldn't come to rest. she kept waking up in the middle of the night. then she had it during the day too. so she decided to visit her family doctor to find out what was wrong. he referred her to the cardiologist. you can ask, so that was because an ekg had, so nothing time you'll be axel immediately had another done good and us of a non,

2:35 pm
fainting unexplained false unfettered. we're not care to strips a gift. none of that's applied to elaina nee, my i the and so you ok, so continued his questioning, turning his attention now to the yellow flags. these include psychological factors, such as stress, a stressful events, cover life situation, anxiety and nervousness. here you axel finally hit on some things that applied to elaine. any my, like how does the cat died a few months earlier, which had really got me down and upset. of course i didn't connect my heart palpitations with that at all. but dr. axel said it could literally be a broken hearted boxes and not, and components have i'm so sign. andrea is digital is also no strange at the hot palpitations, a lawyer unfold that competitive athletes. the 54 year olds, home started racing last year and seem to go into overdrive and then when something
2:36 pm
like that happens. it's scary thing because the hard, it's not something you can control is 50 as an athlete. if i twist my ankle or break my foot devices to that, i know. okay, it just need some rest on the with the hard. so that's not an option. another day, right? i'm an easy g at hendricks university medical center. seeing provided announces andreas digital has atrial fibrillation, a cardiac arrhythmia that is actually quite common. it because when the atria, the chambers of the halt no longer pump in a cold, and i did mine it instead they twitch randomly, leading the atrial muscles to become over stimulated. there's been a risk of a blood clot, foaming in the atrial appendage. if it breaks loose, the blood clot can be carried to the brain, unblocked cannot treat the and that can cause
2:37 pm
a stroke. atrial fibrillation isn't a cute, a life threatening, but it can be dangerous. nobody's, it is, will not ever these episodes occur. patients to complain of reduced physical resiliency publications. dizziness, one more shortness of breath. atrial fibrillation can also be associated with later complications, so lifelong. those are increased risk of dementia, heart failure and stroke lock on for the a possible risk factors that h illustrate relation include, high blood pressure, obesity, diabetes, other lack of excise. andreas district didn't have any of those. however, i'm, i know i'm on the who are some that are more likely to suffer from atrial fibrillation apply industry. so that mr. dental is also an insurance athlete. well, they sometimes develop atrial fibrillation due to their low resting heart rate. and the higher probability of extra beats at this, andrea diesel was given tablets, but they made him feel fatigue. so he up to, to have an operation. it involves cardiac compilation hall till cold energy is

heart contracts and relaxes over and over without ever taking a break to keep pumping, it needs a system to keep the blood flowing. that's the coronary arteries. so what triggers a heart attack? going to be just fine. them basically do the cardiovascular risk factors of flux build up in our arteries. and these are the elastic muscular vessels which transport would love to charge an oxygen. if you have diabetes, what do you have? high blood pressure or high cholesterol, but the who is the positive skin form, as you can see here. and importantly, see these plaques of a so called cluster all the horror of income. when this breaks through the artery walls cluster all leaks out and clogs the vessel, stopping the blood supply, starved of blood hard tissue, starts to die. what are the signs of a heart attack? that same patients can have a heart attack without suffering any previous discomfort. but there are complaints
