The heart rate of 167 beats/minute belongs to the heart rate is too fast, and most of them are caused by pathological reasons, common causes of the heart rate of 167 beats/minute are hyperthyroidism, infections, heart disease and so on, generally should be for different methods to take corresponding therapeutic measures. 1. Hyperthyroidism: If the human body has hyperthyroidism and excessive secretion of thyroid hormones, the body’s metabolism speeds up, the body’s demand for oxygen and blood increases, and the burden on the heart increases, which can cause a fast heart rate. For the hyperthyroidism caused by the heart rate of 167 times / minute can use some anti-thyroid drugs, such as formamide imidazole, propylthioxythiophene and so on. 2. Infection: If the human body is seriously infected, the body will produce a serious inflammatory reaction, the patient will not only produce an increase in body temperature, will also be accompanied by the symptoms of metabolic acceleration, at this time will cause the heart rate to accelerate. Patients with severe infections should be sent to the hospital in time to take emergency measures, anti-infective treatment should also avoid the occurrence of asphyxiation. 3. Heart disease: common diseases include atrial fibrillation, atrial tachycardia, atrial flutter, ventricular tachycardia and other cardiac arrhythmias, or when heart failure occurs, the heart rate of 167 beats per minute may occur. After complete examination and clarification of the cause, anti-arrhythmic and heart failure improvement drugs may be applied, and electrical shock resuscitation is needed if necessary. Heart rate is one aspect of human health testing standards, usually the body’s normal heart rate in the 60 ~ 100 beats / min, non-exercise conditions appear tachycardia or accompanied by dizziness, blurred vision and other symptoms of discomfort as soon as possible to receive examination and treatment.
