Arrhythmia & Syncope Unit

Understand Your Heart Rhythm. Find Answers to Fainting.

Overview

A racing, fluttering or irregular heartbeat can feel unsettling. An arrhythmia is a problem with the heart’s rhythm—it may beat too quickly, too slowly or unevenly.

Syncope is the medical term for fainting. It can have several causes, so an assessment helps determine what happened and whether treatment is needed.

At Aman Hospital’s Arrhythmia & Syncope Unit, specialists work together to assess heart rhythm concerns and unexplained fainting.

Understanding Your Symptoms

Palpitations may feel like pounding, racing, fluttering or skipped beats. These sensations do not always mean you have a heart rhythm disorder, but recurring or worsening symptoms should be checked.

Fainting can occur for reasons including changes in blood pressure, dehydration or heart problems. Identifying the cause helps guide care.

Seek emergency medical help if you currently have palpitations with chest pain, breathlessness, dizziness or fainting. Fainting during exercise, serious injury or failure to recover promptly also needs emergency attention.

Your Care Journey

Explain when symptoms happen, how long they last and what you were doing at the time. If someone witnessed a fainting episode, their description may help.

Your specialist will discuss the findings and recommended next steps.
