Abstract
The advancement of technology has significantly impacted the care of patients with arrhythmias, leading to improved diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment of this heart condition. The introduction of advanced medical devices, such as smart monitors and wearable technologies, has allowed real-time monitoring of cardiac activity, enabling prompt intervention in case of irregularities. Technological progress has also led to the development of sophisticated algorithms for analyzing heart rhythm data, enabling more precise diagnosis and personalized treatment. Telemedicine has become a common practice, allowing patients to regularly communicate with their healthcare providers online, reducing costs and improving the accessibility of medical care. Furthermore, technological advancement has resulted in the development of minimally invasive surgical techniques, such as ablation and the implantation of cardiac pacemakers, reducing the risk of complications and shortening the recovery time for patients. All these innovations together contribute to an improved quality of life for patients with arrhythmias and reduce the risk of serious complications associated with this condition.
