Dizziness, exhaustion, shortness of breath and even fainting can be the result. If the pulse rate is below 60 beats per minute, it is called bradycardia. For some people, this can be a problem. For some people, a very low pulse can be an indication of an illness, e.g. a cardiac arrhythmia. For others, a pulse of around 50-60 beats per minute is a sign of fitness and years of endurance training. In this video, I'll talk about so-called bradycardia. I'll not only explain what this means and what problems and symptoms a slow pulse causes, but also when it becomes dangerous and you need a pacemaker, for example. Bradycardia can be caused by chronic or acute illnesses that throw the heart out of rhythm. Other reasons for a slow pulse can also be side effects of certain medications. So-called bradycardia also occurs very often during sleep, although those affected usually don't notice it. Electrolyte disorders and an underactive thyroid can also be the cause. If the cause of the slow pulse is organic, e.g. damage to the heart, it is usually a cardiac arrhythmia. Heart diseases such as cardiac arrhythmias are a very common cause of bradycardia. Causes INSIDE the heart (examples): Coronary heart disease Disturbances of the sinus node function (e.g. due to sinus node or bradycardia-tachycardia syndrome, chronotropic incompetence) Disturbances of the conduction system Heart attack Inflammation in the heart CRT device (e.g. implanted pacemakers or defibrillators) Causes OUTSIDE the heart (examples): Carotid sinus syndrome Hypothyroidism Disturbances of the electrolyte balance Drug or excessive alcohol consumption Medication overdose Unfavourable factors on pulse and heart rate: 1. Excessive alcohol consumption 2. Drug use 3. Smoking 4. Unhealthy and unbalanced diet 5.
