Activity Description

Arrhythmia entails a broad spectrum of disorders of heart rate and rhythm abnormalities. Arrhythmia is broadly categorized into bradyarrhythmias and tachyarrhythmia based on the heart rate. They are further divided according to the origin, means of transmission, and syndromes associated with it. Patients with an arrhythmia may exhibit a broad spectrum of clinical presentation from being entirely asymptomatic to sudden cardiac arrest. Arrhythmias can be paroxysmal, leading to difficulty in estimating true prevalence. This activity outlines the evaluation and the treatment of various arrhythmias and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in managing patients with these conditions.

Target Audience

This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of physicians, physician associates, nurses, pharmacists, and nurse practitioners.

Learning Objectives

At the conclusion of this activity, the learner will be better able to:

  • Describe the broad categories of arrhythmias
