To prevent heart disease, try not to have high cholesterol, blood pressure, or triglyceride levels; another way to prevent heart disease is to be healthy, as in eat healthy, exercise, stay away from drugs, sleep regular hours, and manage stress -- if you have diabetes, stay on top of it.]]> 2018-04-12 10:03:21 UTC https://padlet.com/gracefair/e9bguviy138j/wish/251062095 Arrhythmia has symptoms. emmaston https://padlet.com/gracefair/e9bguviy138j/wish/251064614 Arrhythmia can cause chest pain, dizziness, fainting, lightheadedness, and shortness of breath.]]> 2018-04-12 10:12:47 UTC https://padlet.com/gracefair/e9bguviy138j/wish/251064614 Arrhythmia EKG emmaston https://padlet.com/gracefair/e9bguviy138j/wish/251065775 Arrhythmias are diagnosed with an EKG. This irregular Arrhythmia EKG is similar to the normal EKG because some heartbeats are consistent throughout the EKGs. Both EKGs also show hearts that are still beating.]]> 2018-04-12 10:17:31 UTC https://padlet.com/gracefair/e9bguviy138j/wish/251065775 Normal EKG emmaston https://padlet.com/gracefair/e9bguviy138j/wish/251066541 The Arrhythmia EKG and normal EKG differ because, while the normal EKG shows a heart beating at a consistent pace, the Arrhythmia EKG shows an inconsistent heart rate. The normal EKG shows a heart rate holding at a certain speed, but the Arrhythmia shows a heart rate that speeds up and immediately slows down.]]> 2018-04-12 10:21:10 UTC https://padlet.com/gracefair/e9bguviy138j/wish/251066541 Arrhythmia can be treated with medicines, medical procedures, and devices. emmaston https://padlet.com/gracefair/e9bguviy138j/wish/251068964 Arrhythmia can be treated medicinally with antiarrhythmic blocker, beta blocker, calcium channel blocker, and a dietary supplement. Arrhythmia can also be treated with cardioversion, a radiofrequency ablation, pacemaker, and a implantable cardioverter-defibrillator. ]]> 2018-04-12 10:31:17 UTC https://padlet.com/gracefair/e9bguviy138j/wish/251068964 Arrhythmia is usually not deadly. emmaston https://padlet.com/gracefair/e9bguviy138j/wish/251070948 When Arrhythmia is treated quickly and the heart reacts correctly to treatment, arrhythmia is fairly manageable -- it can even go away if caused by an overactive thyroid. However, if Arrhythmia is not diagnosed or treated early or if the heart reacts ill to the treatment, Arrhythmia can be fatal.]]> 2018-04-12 10:40:10 UTC https://padlet.com/gracefair/e9bguviy138j/wish/251070948 Arrhythmia is when one's heart rate is fast, slow, or simply irregular when compared to a normal heart rate. emmaston https://padlet.com/gracefair/e9bguviy138j/wish/251074587 2018-04-12 10:56:59 UTC https://padlet.com/gracefair/e9bguviy138j/wish/251074587 Arrhythmia causes irregular heart rate, and the treatments for Arrhythmia regulate the heart rate. emmaston https://padlet.com/gracefair/e9bguviy138j/wish/251074910 For example, a dietary supplement could help one reach a healthier weight, which puts less strain and stress on the heart.
