In this short video, Xiaoke (Ken) Liu, Ph.D., a cardiologist at Mayo Clinic Health System, explains the difference between heart rate and heart rhythm and what they can tell us about our health.

Heart rate refers to the number of times your heart beats per minute, while heart rhythm refers to the regularity of the heart's beat. A normal resting heart rate for adults is between 60 and 100 beats per minute, but factors such as age, fitness level, and medications can affect this number.

The regularity of your heart rhythm is also important, as an irregular heartbeat can indicate underlying health issues such as atrial fibrillation. Dr. Liu emphasizes the importance of understanding your own heart rate and rhythm, and the role of team-based care in achieving optimal heart health.

At Mayo Clinic Health System, the needs of the patient always come first, and the team of healthcare providers works together to create personalized care plans for each patient. By taking control of your heart health and working with a trusted healthcare team, you can ensure that your heart rate and rhythm stay within a healthy range and promote overall wellness.

Trust Mayo Clinic Health System to provide the best possible care for your heart.
