Patient's question:
I have an irregular heartbeat, chest tightness, and dizziness. Recently, I passed the civil service exam, and the interview has already been completed. Hello, will sinus arrhythmia interfere with the health check for civil servants?Doctor's answer:
Atrial arrhythmia is not considered an abnormal heart rate and will never cause significant interference to the body. It should not interfere with your physical examination. Atrial arrhythmia has a clear correlation with respiration. The heart rate slows down during inhalation and speeds up during exhalation. Therefore, when carefully examining an electrocardiogram, do not deliberately hold your breath but breathe at a constant rate, as this can increase the recurrence of arrhythmia. Atrial arrhythmia is caused by the unrestricted variation of the sinus node. Neurological factors, humoral factors, and intrinsic factors of the sinus node interfere with the autonomic regulation of the sinus node, but the main factors are neurological and humoral factors. In only a few cases, the changes in the autonomic regulation of the sinus node are caused by organic damage to the sinus node itself.
