Is a heart rate of 91 normal?

The heart rate of people at different ages is different. The normal heart rate of adults is 60-100 beats/minute, which is suitable for people over 18 years old; the normal heart rate of newborns fluctuates between 100-140 beats/minute; the normal heart rate of infants and young children fluctuates between 90-110 beats/minute; the heart rate of school-age children fluctuates between 80-100 beats/minute, and 70-100 beats/minute before puberty. If the normal heart rate of an adult is 91 beats/minute, it is a bit fast in a resting state. It will be normal after activity or even faster. It is also necessary to rule out hyperthyroidism, fever and chills, excitement, etc.

Diseases caused by a fast heart rate

1 Hyperthyroidism: may cause tachycardia, palpitations, sweating, insomnia, increased appetite, weight loss, etc.;

2. Fever and anemia;

3 Cardiovascular diseases: Pay special attention to myocarditis, etc.;

4. Autonomic dysfunction: Sinus tachycardia may also occur in diseases such as β-receptor hypersensitivity and menopausal syndrome.

Treatment for tachycardia

1. For those with organic diseases, treatment should be targeted at the cause;

2. For functional tachycardia, beta-blockers (such as propranolol, atenolol) and sedatives and antianxiety drugs (such as diazepam) can be used to effectively control sinus tachycardia;

3. Strengthen physical exercise and enhance heart function. Long-term persistence can enhance the autonomic regulatory ability of the autonomic nervous system and restore heart rhythm to normal.

When is a fast heartbeat normal?

Child's heartbeat is fast

It is normal for children to have a fast heartbeat because they are young and their hearts are not fully developed yet, so it is impossible for them to be the same as those of adults. So the child's heart needs to move faster to provide energy to the body and oxygen to the blood. If the child's heartbeat is usually too fast, you should pay attention to other aspects of his body to see if he is crying or restless. Then go to the hospital for a detailed heart examination. It is a normal reaction for children with congenital heart disease to have such a condition.

Pregnancy heart rate

It is normal to have an accelerated heartbeat during pregnancy because the baby is slowly growing and will put pressure on the heart. As the fetus grows and develops, the body has very high requirements for all nutrients, so the heart needs to work faster to provide energy for the body. At the same time, after the placental circulatory system is established, a certain blood dynamics will be formed, which may promote faster heartbeats. Incorrect diet and sleeping posture may affect the heart's movement frequency. Pregnant women should pay attention to their daily life.

What is the normal heart rate for pregnant women?

The normal heart rate of a pregnant woman should be between 60 and 100, but a slightly higher heart rate will not have much impact, because as the pregnant woman gets older, her heart rate will naturally speed up. This is a normal reaction. As she grows older, she needs to provide more energy and oxygen to grow healthily. If her heart rate does not speed up, the oxygen provided cannot provide enough energy for her activities. In addition, the fetus also needs nutrition and its internal circulation has been formed, so it is normal for its heartbeat to increase.
