    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paroxysmal_nocturnal_dyspnoea

    Paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea is a common symptom of several heart conditions such as heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, in addition to asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and sleep apnea. [8] Other symptoms that may be seen alongside paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea are weakness, orthopnea, edema, fatigue, and dyspnea. [9]

  4. Atrial fibrillation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atrial_fibrillation

    Atrial fibrillation (AF, AFib or A-fib) is an abnormal heart rhythm (arrhythmia) characterized by rapid and irregular beating of the atrial chambers of the heart. [ 11 ] [ 12 ] It often begins as short periods of abnormal beating , which become longer or continuous over time. [ 4 ]

    Atrial fibrillation affects about 25 per 1000 people, [7] paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia 2.3 per 1000, [6] Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome 2 per 1000, [8] and atrial flutter 0.8 per 1000. [10]

    ICD-10 is the 10th revision of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD), a medical classification list by the World Health Organization (WHO).

  7. Atrial tachycardia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atrial_tachycardia

    Atrial tachycardia is a type of heart rhythm problem in which the heart's electrical impulse comes from an ectopic pacemaker (that is, an abnormally located cardiac pacemaker) in the upper chambers of the heart, rather than from the sinoatrial node, the normal origin of the heart's electrical activity.

  8. Lown–Ganong–Levine syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lown–Ganong–Levine...

    Individuals with LGL syndrome do not carry an increased risk of sudden death. The only morbidity associated with the syndrome is the occurrence of paroxysmal episodes of tachycardia which may be of several types, including sinus tachycardia, atrioventricular nodal re-entrant tachycardia, atrial fibrillation, or atrial flutter. [4]

  9. Familial atrial fibrillation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Familial_atrial_fibrillation

    Familial atrial fibrillation is an autosomal dominant heart condition that causes disruptions in the heart's normal rhythm. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] This condition is characterized by uncoordinated electrical activity in the heart's upper chambers (the atria ), which causes the heartbeat to become fast and irregular.
