What can be done to fix the heart when it is in an abnormal rhythm?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends on why: The type of abnormal rhythm determines the therapy. Some can be treated with medications. Others may need to be cardioverted ("shocked") back into rhythm. Some people need invasive procedures to locate the exact location of the rhythm problem and treat it this way.
