An arrhythmia is a problem with the rate or rhythm of your heartbeat. It means that your heart beats too quickly, too slowly, or with an irregular pattern.

There are many types of heart arrhythmias, with Atrial fibrillation or (A Fib) being the most common type of serious arrhythmia.

Joining me today to discuss A Fib and other arrhythmias is cardiac electrophysiologist and author of a very interesting and informative book, Restart Your Heart, Aseem Desai, MD.
