Arrhythmia Considerations

Meaning

The careful clinical evaluation and strategic planning required when managing hormonal therapies in individuals who have or are at risk for cardiac rhythm abnormalities, which are deviations from the normal sinus rhythm of the heart. This involves assessing the potential pro-arrhythmic effects of exogenous hormones or underlying endocrine dysfunction on cardiac electrophysiology. These considerations are vital for patient safety and minimizing cardiovascular risk.
