Abstract
Hyperthyroidism is an endocrine syndrome, which has been identified as an important cardiovascular risk factor. Excess thyroid hormone may lead to increased cardiac contractility, raised heart rate, and decreased systemic vascular resistance (Yamakawa et al., 2021). Such hemodynamic alterations predispose patients to rhythm disturbances, primary atrial fibrillation, and heart failure, which can result in fatal events (Cappola et al., 2019). This emphasizes the importance of early diagnosis and treatment of cardiac disturbances secondary to hyperthyroidism.
