She felt her heart flutter when he waved.
It should not "flutter" perhaps you just feel the tightening in your chest. It does increase thoracic pressure which your heart may be reacting to. If you are worried see a doctor and ask for a heart monitor that will record your heart when you yawn.
Atrial flutter-- Rapid, inefficient contraction of the upper chamber of the heart.
thats a big possibility
No. Indigestion generally has no effect on the heart whatsoever. The sensations caused by indigestion can feel very much like a "heart flutter", however. In fact, it can sometimes be difficult for a physician to differentiate between the two without further testing. If you are concerned that you may be experiencing heart flutter, I would recommend seeing your doctor for an EKG (electrocardiogram) at the very least, to rule out any sort of heart problem.
The flutter could be tiny air bubbles, due to the higher fibre, moving about
3 different heart rhythms... though flutter and fibrillation when talking about the atria are very very similar... many different kins of heart block... if its 3rd its time to goto the hospital and get a pacemaker. even some of the higher type II's
1st of all go to a Dr and get it assessed... if it is fluttering all the time it could be a very dangerous rhythm. A Dr will know what to do. You need a heart monitor to assess the rhythm, then if it is indeed "fluttering" medications and/or a procedure known as ablation either radio or cryo could resolve it.
Atrial Flutter. You may be thinking of atrial fibrillation, though.
to control the rate and rhythm of the heart and to prevent the formation of blood clots. If the arrhythmia is caused by heart disease, the heart disease will also be treated.
They're he same thing. Atrial flutter is more of a slang term, and is sometimes found in patients with atrial tachycardia. Basically, atrial fibrillation is a disorder, and atrial flutter is a symptom
abnormal heart rhythms in which the atria, or upper chambers of the heart, are out of sync with the ventricles, or lower chambers of the heart. In atrial fibrillation, the atria "quiver" chaotically and the ventricles beat irregularly
