Is it serious that my portable heart monitor showed my heart rate speeding up and slowing down between 50 and 144 beats per minute with a 1.8-second pause, especially since I have a history of heart bypass surgery?

A heart rate fluctuating between 50 and 144 beats per minute, alongside a brief 1.8-second pause, is important to note but not an immediate reason to panic. These variations can occur for several reasons, including temporary rhythm shifts like atrial fibrillation. Because of your cardiac history, the best step is to share these monitor results with your cardiologist promptly. They can review the detailed tracings to see if any simple adjustments to your care or medications are needed to keep your heart rhythm steady, safe, and comfortable.
