Hyperthyroidism can result in tachyarrhythmias (fast abnormal heart rhythms) such as supraventricular tachycardia, atrial fibrillation, or atrial flutter. These can be detected on EKG.
Hypothyroidism can cause slow heart rate (bradycardia) and can be associated with congenital heart block (abnormal electrical conduction between the top and bottom chambers of the heart). These can also be seen on EKG.
