Is this arrhythmia significant?
Arrhythmias are often a common finding in general practice. They are frequently found incidentally to the presenting complaint. The bulk of this article deals with tachyarrhythmias, which have been traditionally subdivided into supraventricular and ventricular, according to their presumed site of origin. A few notes are provided on the significance or otherwise of various forms of atrioventricular block. The rare and the exotic have been avoided with concentration on rhythm disturbances likely to be seen by general practitioners.
