Bradycardia involves a heart rate less than 60 beats per minute. It can be categorized into sick sinus syndrome and conduction block. Some common symptoms of cardiac arrhythmia are chest pain, palpitations, anxiety, etc. Clinical management of cardiac arrhythmias includes different types of medications and invasive therapies. Electrical cardioversion is a type of treatment in which an electrical impulse is conveyed through the chest wall. It is used to synchronize the heart and allow the normal rhythm to restart. This book provides significant information of cardiac arrhythmias to help develop a good understanding of their mechanism and clinical management.
