Supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) is an umbrella term for fast heart rhythms arising from the upper part of the heart. [2] This is in contrast to the other group of fast heart rhythms – ventricular tachycardia, which start within the lower chambers of the heart. [2]
The upper threshold of a normal human resting heart rate is based on age. Cutoff values for tachycardia in different age groups are fairly well standardized; typical cutoffs are listed below: [7] [8] 1–2 days: Tachycardia >159 beats per minute (bpm) 3–6 days: Tachycardia >166 bpm; 1–3 weeks: Tachycardia >182 bpm; 1–2 months: Tachycardia ...
The number of adults without CVD who reported using aspirin was 14.4%, down from 20.6% in 2021. However, when stratified by age, a different picture emerges: for adults 70 and older, 38% are still ...
When examining the cost-effectiveness of statin use in older adults, the researchers report that statins were cost-effective, with the cost per quality-adjusted life years gained below £3,502 ...
All websites on which pornographic material can be found, including social media platforms, must introduce "robust" age-checking techniques such as demanding photo ID or running credit card checks ...
A resting heart rate that is too fast – above 100 beats per minute in adults – is called tachycardia, and a resting heart rate that is too slow – below 60 beats per minute – is called bradycardia. [2] Some types of arrhythmias have no symptoms. [1] Symptoms, when present, may include palpitations or feeling a pause between heartbeats. [1]
The CDC said 1.7% of adults ages 65 to 74 reported a dementia diagnosis, a rate that increased with age. For those ages 75 to 84, the reported dementia rate was 5.7%
