Abstract

Purpose: Mental stress and other psychosomatic disorders have been linked to an increased risk of sudden cardiac death in population studies. There hasn't been a thorough examination as to whether emotional or physical stresses might cause sporadic ventricular arrhythmias in vulnerable patients. An outsized and mounting body of discovery shed light on the fact that internal health is interrelated to risk factors for heart complaint before an opinion of an internal health complaint and through treatment. These things can arise both directly, through natural pathways, and laterally, through parlous health actions. People who are passing through clinical depression, anxiety disorders, common and general stress syndromes, and indeed post-traumatic stress disorder commonly known as PTSD over an absolute period of your occasion may observe definite physiological alterations in the body, similarly, as a highly enlarged cardiac reactivity such as augmented vital signs and elevated blood pressure, deducted or condensed blood inflow directly to the center, and heightened or highly raised amount of an organic chemical compound called cortisol. Over time, these physiologic processes may generate calcium particle depositions or buildup within the normal organic pathways. It may also manifest events of body metabolic dysfunction as well as cardiac conduction problems. Substantiation shows that many physiological and psychiatric/psychological diseases -similar to chronic clinical depression, psychological stress, and PTSD can appear after any cardiac event regardless of its severity. Objective: The focal objective of this article is to identify psychological stress, its influence on cardiac problems such as cardiac arrhythmia, and its symptomatic manifestations on an electrocardiogram. Apart from that, this paper also focuses on the area of how ECG changes due to psychological distress. Another objective of this paper is to provide vivid information about psychological stress and its link with acute and chronic cardiac pathologies. Laymen should know the fact that the mind and the body are linked with each other and if the mind is distressed for a long time will affect the health condition of the physical body also. Design/Methodology/Approach: To build the paper, mostly secondary information has been used from various sources such as clinical literature, journals, websites, etc. Primary information has also been used to increase the accuracy and reliability of the paper. Primary data have been taken from neuropsychologists, cardiologists, clinical psychopathologists, and behavioral medicine specialists. Based on all these databases, systematic and scientific clinical analysis of information has been done to avoid any mistakes and errors. Findings/Result: In people with ICDs, stress and physical exercise might cause ventricular rhythm abnormalities. Future studies into medicines that prevent these stimuli' responses might reduce ventricular arrhythmias and upsets in some of these patients. People with type A personalities should try to control or adjust their innate personality and character to reduce the vulnerability to develop any kind of cardiac arrhythmia or any other cardiac pathologies. All ECG variations and arrhythmias are not related to psychological stress rather it needs differential diagnosis to rule out any other underlying problems. A thorough differential investigation is suggested to rule out whether the cardiac problem is due to psychological stress or not. Originality and value: A comprehensive analysis and interpretation have been made to cover the concerned topic of study and make information more reliable and valid. A new initiative is taken to provide information about the mind and heart link. Paper Type: Secondary clinical report analysis/interpretive paper

Highlights

  • Acute mental stress can cause significant atrial or ventricular arrhythmias or both, the exact physiological mechanisms are yet unknown

  • By monitoring T-wave alternans (TWA) throughout an experimental laboratory psychological stress regimen, we looked straight at the contact of psychological distress and its clinically significant outcome on the heterogenic effect of cardiac repolarization as a component of long-recognized factor to develop cardiac arrhythmogenesis

  • In a follow-up investigation of our anger and T Wave Alterens study, we discovered that anger-induced T Wave Alterance was a powerful determinant of arrhythmia, well with risk of ICD-treated ventricular arrhythmia for those in the upper quartile of anger-induced in the laboratory being over 10 times higher than other subjects (Figure 7)

Summary

Introduction

Acute mental stress (acute psychological stress) can cause significant atrial or ventricular arrhythmias or both, the exact (bodily activities) physiological mechanisms are yet unknown. 5. OVERVIEW OF CHANGE IN ECG VARIATIONS IN VENTRICLE DUE TO STRESS : In epidemiological and medical studies, psychological distress is characterized as a consciously perceived disparity between expectancies and the observable situations connected to anxiety sensitivity and avoidance has been found to trigger ventricular or atrial arrhythmias, or in some cases both [14].
