There are many types of arrhythmia. Generally it can be divided into two categories of tachyarrhythmia and slow type arrhythmia.

Tachyarrhythmia (tachycardia) is originated from the atrium, atrioventricular node or ventricle. Such arrhythmia includes supraventricular tachycardia (SVT), pre-excitation syndrome (WPW), atrial fibrillation (AF), ventricular tachycardia (VT), ventricular fibrillation (VF) and so on. As the ventricle is the main bearer of Cardiac Pump Function, so all that happens in the fast ventricular rhythm abnormalities often result in serious consequences. Slow arrhythmia (bradycardia) is commonly seen as sick sinus syndrome (SSS), cardiac conduction block, etc. The main treatment is through the installation of artificial cardiac pacemaker.

Arrhythmia occurs more common in patients with heart disease caused by a variety of reasons, while few people do not have organic heart disease. The clinical manifestations are suddenly occur, regular or irregular palpitations, chest pain, dizziness, precordial discomfort, oppressed feeling, shortness of breath, cool hands and feet as well as faint, and even unconsciousness. A few part of patients with arrhythmia have asymptomatic, only have changes in electrocardiogram. If one gets the above symptoms, he should timely go to the hospital for cardiovascular specialist treatment, so as not to delay the disease state.
