Heart palpitations refer to the sensation of rapid, irregular, or pounding heartbeats that a person may feel in their chest. While palpitations can be harmless and temporary, they may also indicate an underlying heart rhythm disorder or other medical conditions. Nurses may assess and monitor patients experiencing heart palpitations to determine the cause and provide appropriate care.
