Heart and vascular diseases remain the main causes of death in Russia.

That is why it is so important to recognize and contact specialists in time in case of problems with the circulatory system.

Cardiologist Natalia Platonova, in an interview with the portal " Doctor Peter ", told what type of arrhythmia is mortally dangerous for a person.

According to the specialist, the term “arrhythmia” refers to a whole range of different diseases.

The exact nature of the heart pathology should be determined by an arrhythmologist or cardiologist, but this will only be possible if the changes are recorded on the ECG.

At the same time, there are a number of arrhythmias that pose a mortal danger to humans. Such conditions include the ventricular variety.

In some cases, it can lead to loss of consciousness or even cardiac arrest.

The characteristic symptoms of arrhythmia, the doctor emphasized, are increased heart rate, both rhythmic and arrhythmic, when the heart seems to stop or tremble.

These symptoms cannot be ignored and you should consult a specialist after they appear.
