Atrial fibrillation (AFib) is a kind of irregular heartbeat, or arrhythmia. A problem with the electrical signals that control your heart’s pumping action causes it to beat too fast in a pattern that ...
Atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia (AVRT) is a rhythm problem in your heart that makes it beat too fast. It results from an extra connection between your upper and lower chambers. You might hear ...
A first-degree AV node block occurs when conduction through the AV node is slowed, thus delaying the time it takes for the action potential to travel from the SA node, through the AV node, and to the ...
