A steady heart and disciplined mind make for the most successful investor. Similarly, maintaining a steady and healthy heart is equally vital for a long and healthy life.
A precisely coordinated electrical rhythm is essential for the heart to pump blood effectively throughout the body. Disruption of this rhythm affects the heart's ability to maintain adequate circulation, leading to arrhythmias. One such serious rhythm disorder is ventricular tachycardia, which is defined as three or more consecutive ventricular beats at a rate of 120 beats per minute or higher. Symptoms vary with duration and severity, ranging from none to palpitations, and in severe cases, can lead to hemodynamic collapse or sudden death.
