Living with Paroxysmal Supraventricular Tachycardia (PSVT): Taking Charge of Your Condition
Paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT) is a type of arrhythmia—or irregular heart rhythm—that affects around 1.7 million Americans. This type of arrhythmia causes the heart to beat too quickly. PSVT causes the heart to beat too quickly—during PSVT episodes, the heart can race and jump from the normal 60 to 100 beats per minute, up to 250 beats per minute. These episodes can start and stop without warning and can last from seconds to hours. While typically not dangerous, it’s important to properly diagnose PSVT to make sure it’s not a more serious type of arrhythmia, and to properly treat your episodes if they impact your heart health or your quality of life. You don’t need to live in constant fear of your next PSVT episode. Take charge and talk to your healthcare professional about how you can live a normal life.
Living with Arrhythmias: What to Know When Your Heart is Out of Rhythm
Have you or a loved one ever experienced an irregular heart rhythm? If so, you know how frightening it can be—especially if you don’t know what’s causing it, or if it’s a sign of something serious or life-threatening. Irregular heart rhythms, or arrhythmias, occur when the heart’s electrical signals are abnormal—making it beat too fast, too slow, or in an uncoordinated manner. There are numerous types of arrhythmias. Some resolve on their own, while others need treatment.
