Understanding Morning Heart Palpitations and When to Seek Medical Care
Waking up with a racing or pounding heart can be unsettling but is often not dangerous. Common causes include stress, dehydration, alcohol, nicotine, and sleep transitions. Palpitations are symptoms, not diagnoses, and may reflect various triggers. In some cases, persistent rapid heartbeats, such as 120 beats per minute at rest, can indicate conditions like atrioventricular nodal re-entry tachycardia (AVNRT), which may require medical evaluation and treatment like radiofrequency ablation.
