Hi,
I understand your concern and such scenario can happen in certain conduction disturbances of the heart which can cause increased heart rate called as tachycardia. Your sister might require evaluation with an electrocardiogram and Holter monitoring.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
