Should I Take Aspirin After Experiencing Rapid Heart Beat?
hi my name is john, my wife has been experiencing brief intervals of rapid heart beat every once in a while for about two years. today she has had two episodes . we are wondering if she should take some aspirin tonight or something else just in case.
Small dose aspirin has anti-platelet / used to reduce the incidence of clotting It has no effects on the rate
The beats need documentation and investigation… EKG / HOLTER (24 to 48 hour ambulatory monitoring) / ECHOcardiogram / TMT (Treadmill exercise ECG) / LABORATORY work-up – may all be necessary for further assessment and assistance.
Good luck Take care Wishing all well God bless
