What Your Heart Is Telling You With Skipped Beats

Описание: Are all irregular heartbeats atrial fibrillation (AFib)? Not necessarily! In this video, I explain why not every irregular heartbeat means you have AFib. Many people experience premature beats — either premature atrial contractions (PACs) or premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) — which can cause skipped beats or palpitations without being dangerous.

I break down the difference between true abnormal heart rhythms like AFib and these much more common (and usually benign) premature beats.

We'll also cover:

How the heart’s electrical system works

What premature beats actually are

How doctors tell the difference between AFib and other irregularities

When you should be concerned and seek treatment

How heart monitors and EKGs are used to diagnose the real cause

If you’ve ever felt a weird flutter, pause, or extra heartbeat — and worried it was serious — this video is for you! 🫀

Remember: Proper diagnosis by a cardiologist or cardiac electrophysiologist is key!
