This book provides an in-depth yet accessible explanation of the causes, classification, clinical manifestations, new diagnostic techniques, treatment (including medication and new therapies such as radiofrequency ablation and implantation of a pacemaker), and prevention (self-care) of arrhythmias. The book specifically highlights which arrhythmias do not require treatment and which must be treated, as untreated conditions can affect cardiac hemodynamics and blood supply to vital organs, with severe cases potentially. Among rapid arrhythmias, frequent atrial premature beats in bigeminy or polymorphism, paroxysmal ventricular tachycardia, frequent ventricular premature beats in bigeminy or polymorphism, especially when R waves overlap the T waves of the preceding cycle, can trigger ventricular tachycardia, even ventricular fibrillation, occasionally leading to sudden cardiac arrest. In slow arrhythmias, such as sick sinus syndrome and complete atrioventricular block, can cause syncope or even sudden cardiac arrest, requiring immediate medical attention. This book adopts a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine, including a chapter on "Traditional Chinese Medicine Diagnosis and Treatment of Arrhythmias," providing a comprehensive and systematic treatment approach for arrhythmia patients. In addition to being suitable for general medical professionals, this book is also convenient for patients and their families to carry and refer to, making it an excellent educational resource for readers to correctly understand arrhythmias.
