Arrhythmia Center

Arrhythmia means abnormal heart rhythm. These rhythms may be too slow (bradycardia) or too fast (tachycardia). The heart may quiver instead of beating, as with ventricular fibrillation. Signals that tell the heart to beat may become blocked, as with heart block, bundle branch block or sick sinus syndrome.
