    Healthy teenagers at risk of irregular heartbeats from air pollution, says study
    Concern as heart arrhythmias appear to be triggered even when air pollution within quality limits

    The monitors captured two types of arrhythmia that can make people feel their heart has skipped a beat. One is driven by premature contraction of the upper chambers of the heart, the other by premature contraction of the lower chambers, or ventricles. While they are rarely treated unless they cause symptoms, premature ventricular contractions can raise the risk of heart attacks, stroke, heart failure and sudden cardiac death later in life.
