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.
Warning:
If the irregular heartbeat symbol ( ) is shown frequently, 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.
