Arrhythmia's: Types, Pathophysiology and Therapy: A Review

Abstract

Arrhythmia is irregular heartbeat, too slow or too fast. Heart function is regulated by electrical impulse which initiate from the sinus node and deputed over heart. Rhythmic change occurs in heart due to abnormal conduction of impulse results in arrhythmia Origin and mechanism of the arrhythmia is different and the electrocardiogram is used to have complete knowledge of arrhythmias, methodology and its construction of electrical impulse. Tele ECG is one among, the recent invention which has reduced the workload of recording heartbeat in the diagnosis of cardiovascular disease. According to the impulse disorder in heart, different arrhythmia were categorised. Mainly two, disorder of impulse occur in atrium is a called atrial arrhythmia and irregular impulse occur in ventricle is a known as ventricular arrhythmia. Anti-arrhythmic agents are classified based on changes in the phases of myocardial cell to treat the various arrhythmia. Herbal medicine has a minimized in side effects.
