The heart is undoubtedly one of the most important organs that ensures the normal functioning of the body by providing it with blood containing oxygen, food and all the substances necessary for life. But it is no secret that every year millions of people die from cardiovascular diseases, which can also lead to tachycardia. Tachycardia is a type of arrhythmia characterized by an increased heart rate (more than 90 beats per minute). There are two main groups of tachycardia - physiological and pathological. Physiological - occurs in a state of stress, and also occurs in pregnant women and children under 15 years of age. Pathological - all other cases of tachycardia in adults that occur for no apparent reason When the heart beats too fast, it may not pump enough blood to the rest of the body. This can lead to a lack of oxygen in organs and tissues and can cause the following signs and symptoms associated with tachycardia: • Shortness of breath • Dizziness • Rapid pulse • Palpitations is an uncomfortable or irregular heartbeat or a "popping" sensation in the chest. • Chest pain • Fainting Some people with tachycardia do not have any symptoms and the condition is only discovered during a physical exam or with a heart monitoring test called an electrocardiogram.
