Bradycardia is a heart rhythm problem causing a slow heartbeat, and tachycardia causes a rapid heartbeat. The normal heartbeat for an adult is 60 to 100 beats per minute (bpm). A slow or fast bpm reduces the amount of oxygen-rich blood circulating through your body, affecting the brain and organs.2Staff, Mayo Clinic. ‘Bradycardia.’ Mayo Clinic, Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research, 13 Nov. 2019, www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/bradycardia/symptoms-causes/syc-20355474.
Palpitations are similar to arrhythmias, but not as dangerous. Bradycardia and tachycardia are arrhythmias that may cause symptoms such as dizziness, confusion, memory problems and fatigue. Unresolved arrhythmias warrant a visit to your doctor.
