What is palpitation? What symptom

First: chest pain. If suffering from coronary heart disease, pericarditis, angina pectoris, cardiomyopathy, patients with palpitations are often accompanied by chest pain. Like angina pectoris, pain mostly in the sternum, left shoulder, pain each attack is generally about 4 minutes, no more than 15 minutes. The reason may be overwork, mental tension, cold and other factors. Pay attention to rest, the pain will be relieved.

Second: dyspnea. Dyspnea is often caused by cardiac insufficiency. Dyspnea relatively light, such as myocarditis, pericarditis, pulmonary heart disease. More serious, like cardiogenic asthma. Because the concentration of oxyhemoglobin in the blood is lower, it will also cause different degrees of dyspnea. The influence of abnormal heart rhythm on cardiac function can sometimes provide clues for finding out the cause.

Third: syncope and convulsion. Most of them are caused by serious arrhythmias caused by different causes, such as sick sinus syndrome, high atrioventricular block, ventricular fibrillation, cardiogenic cerebral hypoxia syndrome caused by paroxysmal ventricular tachycardia.
