Arrhythmia refers to an abnormality in the frequency or rhythm of heart beats caused by an abnormality in the origin or conduction of heart activity. It is an important group of cardiovascular diseases, which can be developed independently or be accompanied with other cardiovascular diseases. Arrhythmia may cause various types of symptoms, but notably not all arrhythmic patients may develop symptoms, and some may only find arrhythmia accidentally in physical examination or electrocardiographic examination. For occasional arrhythmias, rapid and reliable monitoring is made difficult.
