Why you shouldn’t ignore feeling faint or breathless


Tere are many reasons for feeling faint or out of breath. Importantly, heart-related causes


can lead to


significant morbidity and be poten- tially life threatening. Cardiac causes of


feeling faint are usually


heart rate or blood pressure related. Common causes are due to rhythm disturbances called arrhythmia, where the heart beats inappropri- ately too fast or too slow and can be associated with symptoms of palpi- tations and breathlessness. One of the common arrhythmias called atrial fibrillation (AF) has many trig- gers and risk factors, which unfortu- nately increase with age. AF is asso- ciated with a significant increase stroke risk, which can be prevented if diagnosed early. Faints or near


blackouts can be caused by AF, as well as if the heart becomes too slow due to heart block. Tere are now many technology advances, which can capture these arrhythmias using smart watches or patch heart moni- tors and even an injectable micro monitor the size of a pen lid can be implanted to monitor the heart for up to four years is now possible, allowing these rhythm disturbances to be picked up and diagnosed early.

cardiologist specialising in diagnos- tics and interventional cardiology. He would be happy to advise either by appointment face to face or with a phone consultation.
