Around 10% of Europeans aged 60 and above are reported to suffer from heart arrhythmia.
“Clinical perception of the condition is highly variable,” explains Petr Neužil, Head of the Cardiology Clinic at Na Homolce Hospital, one of Czechia’s main hospitals. “The patient may perceive nothing; they may be completely asymptomatic. Then, they can feel palpitations. They can feel breathless. They cannot breathe. And very often they feel weakness.”
