Arrhythmias are irregular heartbeats that occur when the electrical signals controlling the heartbeat malfunction. They can manifest as a heart beating too fast (tachycardia), too slow (bradycardia), or in an erratic pattern. While some arrhythmias may be harmless, others can lead to serious complications, including stroke or heart failure. Diagnosis and treatment vary depending on the type and severity of the arrhythmia.
