Arrhythmia is a disturbance in the normal rhythm of the heart. Instead of beating regularly and coordinated, the heart may beat too fast, too slow, or irregularly.

This can cause symptoms such as palpitations, dizziness, difficulty breathing, or even fainting. Arrhythmias can be mild and not require treatment, but in some cases, they can be dangerous and require medical attention.

There are different types of arrhythmias, and their diagnosis and treatment depend on the severity and specific type of heart rhythm disturbance.
