[|Human|] My father is 71 years old he has had heart failure in february 2011 currently he was admitted  a week ago in hospital for fast heart beat. Now he is back home and the dr. Are monitoring how he coupes, my biggest worry is that my father doesnt want any further operations to improve his condition, he shuts me out, the rest of the family have accepted his wishes. What is your advice on this? Only 40 percent of his heart is working.
[|AI|]  Hi, There are different types of fast heart rates. The first one when patients normal rhythm increases, in this case there is no need for any surgery, it is treated with medications. The second most frequent cause of fast heart rate is atrial fibrillation, in this case if rhythm is not restored, we try to do it with medications or electrical cardioversion. If there are multiple episodes of atrial fibrillation, patient may be advised to an invasive correction, which is a minioperation, but there are also patients, which remain with atrial fibrillation, and it heart rate is regulated with medications. There are other fast heart rhythms, such as atrial tachycardia or atrial flutter, ventricular tachycardia, in every case the treatment can be either with medications or a minioperation, depends on the patients parameters. But if your father doesn't want to undergo a surgery, it is his right and choice, he can be managed with medications. Hope this was helpfulWishing you good health In case of further questions don't hesitate to regards
