Bradycardia usually starts with problems in the sinus node. In some, the sinus node might create another complication called bradycardia-tachycardia syndrome, with alternating slow and fast rates. Your heartbeat rate might be because your sinus node might discharge electrical impulses at a lesser rate, pause or fail to discharge at a normal rate and discharge an impulse that gets blocked before reaching the atrium. Other causes could be: Damages to tissues of the heart due to ageing or heart attack High blood pressure Congenital heart defects Myocarditis – Infection of tissues of the heart Hypothyroidism – Underactive thyroid gland Electrolytic imbalance Hemochromatosis – Buildup of iron inside the organs
Bradycardia could be diagnosed using standard tests like measuring the pulse or an electrocardiogram. But often Bradycardia comes and goes. Sometimes, normal tests might not be able to detect Bradycardia unless it happens during the test. Therefore, ythe doctor might prescribe using an ambulatory electrocardiogram. Also called Holter monitor, this device is light in weight and portable. It will record the activities of your heart as you go about your daily chores.
Treatment of Bradycardia would, of course, depend on the root cause and symptoms of the problem. Generally, Bradycardia is not treated if symptoms are not displayed. .. Pacemaker If the cause of Bradycardia is improper electrical signals, ythe doctor might implant a tiny device called pacemaker. This device will control your heartbeat rate and whenever it is low, it will release impulses and control the heart. Medication If the cause is hypothyroidism or electrolytic imbalance, treating it with appropriate medication would cure Bradycardia. Side effects of other medicines If taking other medicines is the cause of Bradycardia in you, ythe doctor might prescribe different medicines or adjust dosages. In unavoidable circumstances, a pacemaker may be inevitable.
