What is Irregular Heartbeat?
An irregular heartbeat is a
heartbeat rhythm that varies
by more than 25% from the
average heartbeat rhythm
detected while the unit is
measuring the systolic and
diastolic blood pressure.
If such an irregular rhythm is
detected more than twice
during measurement, the irregular heartbeat symbol (
appears on the symbol when the measurement results are
displayed.
What is Arrhythmia?
A heartbeat is stimulated by electrical signals that cause the
heart to contract.
Arrhythmia is a condition where the heartbeat rhythm is
abnormal due to flaws in the bio-electrical system that drives
the heartbeat. Typical symptoms are skipped heartbeats,
premature contraction, an abnormally rapid (tachycardia) or
slow (bradycardia) pulse. This can be caused by heart disease,
aging, physical predisposition, stress, lack of sleep, fatigue etc.
Arrhythmia can only be diagnosed by a doctor through a
special examination.
Whether the appearance of the irregular heartbeat symbol
( ) in the results indicates arrhythmia or not can only be
determined by an examination and diagnosis by your doctor.
If the irregular heartbeat symbol (
please make your doctor aware of it. Conducting self-diagnosis
and treatment based on measurement results is dangerous. Be
sure to follow the instructions of your doctor.
