A heartbeat that is too fast is called tachycardia. A heartbeat that is too slow is called bradycardia. An arrhythmia happens when some part of the heart's electrical system doesn't function as it should. Most arrhythmias are harmless, but some can be serious or even life threatening.
Millions of Americans have arrhythmias, and arrhythmias are especially common among older adults. About 2.2 million Americans have atrial fibrillation. Health experts think that most of the sudden cardiac deaths that occur every year (about 335,000) are due to ventricular fibrillation. Arrhythmias have many causes. These include: * Heart disease - A common cause of serious arrhythmias. * Stress * Smoking * Heavy alcohol use * Heavy exercise * Some drugs (such as cocaine or amphetamines) * Certain medicines can lead to arrhythmias in some people.

An EKG is a simple test that detects and records the electrical activity of your heart. It shows how fast the heart is beating and its rhythm (steady or irregular). It also records the strength and timing of the electrical signals as they pass through each part of the heart.
