Failure to feel the heartbeat may be due to physiological factors, arrhythmia or weakening of the heart contraction force.
1. Physiological factors: under normal circumstances, most people can not feel their own heartbeat, which is a normal phenomenon, in the obese people, may not be able to touch the heartbeat in the precordial area, which is also a normal phenomenon.
2. Arrhythmia: In patients with atrioventricular block, premature ventricular contractions and other arrhythmias, the patient will have a momentary sensation of cardiac arrest, and can go to the hospital for electrocardiography to make a clear diagnosis.
3. Weak heart contraction: heart failure patients with weak heart contraction, the patient will not feel the heartbeat, at this time you can touch the large arteries such as the femoral artery to confirm the heartbeat.
Therefore, patients who cannot feel the heartbeat do not need to worry too much, they can have an ECG or dynamic ECG to observe the heartbeat.
