Arrhythmia - Screening and Prevention

If you or your child is at increased risk of arrhythmia, the doctor may want to do a screening to assess the risk of a life-threatening event. Sometimes screening is required to participate in competitive sports. If your child carries a genetic risk of arrhythmia, your child’s doctor may recommend regular screening to monitor your child’s heart or other family members’ health. Heart-healthy lifestyle changes and other precautions can help decrease the risk of triggering arrhythmia.
