Overview

The heart comprises of a conduction framework to transmit electrical waves for the legitimate modulation of the heart muscles. These electrical waves are produced by uncommon Sino Atrial tissues (S A hubs) which are available in the correct chamber and after that these driving forces spread through upper chambers. The driving forces are spread through Atrio-Ventricular hub among auricles and ventricles. Another heap of tissues called Bundle of Hiss is likewise in charge of electrical conduction so ventricles contract to siphon blood to the body and lungs. Together these 3 components comprise the natural pacemakers of the heart. This electrical impulses flow in the heart can be disrupted leading to a disease called arrhythmias. Brady-arrhythmias is the point at which the heart mood is strangely moderate. It tends to be caused because of heart square or sinus bradycardia. Sinus bradycardia is because of the lull of common pacemakers. Heart square occurs because of square or deferral in the conduction of electrical driving forces in the heart. Heart squares can be of different degrees and types like first degree AV square, second degree AV hinder as soon. Tachyarrhythmias is the point at which the heart cadence is unusually quick. The sorts of Tachyarrhythmias (typically refers to nonsustained and sustained forms of tachycardia originating from myocardial foci or reentrant circuits) treated with pacemakers are ventricular tachycardia and atrial fibrillation. Ventricular tachycardia begins in the ventricles and the fast withdrawals can cause heart failure. Atrial fibrillation starts in the atria and is incapable of siphoning the blood into the ventricles.

Symptoms of arrhythmias are:

• Dizziness and syncope
• Palpitations and shortness of breath
• Mental confusion
• Fatigue

The causes of cardiac arrhythmias are:

• The natural aging process of heart muscles
• Coronary artery disease
• Heart attack
• Congenital heart defects
• Certain medications

Treatment options:

Your doctor may suggest different types of pacemakers to restore or maintain a regular heartbeat:

• when the patient's heart's own pacemaker is slow.
• Rate-responsive pacemakers increase or decrease heart rate according to the body requirement like in rest or during activity of heart.
