Poor sleep

Poor sleep or ongoing insomnia can increase the likelihood of Afib episodes. A lack of quality sleep stresses the heart and disrupts the nervous system that helps regulate heart rhythm. Sleep apnea is also strongly linked to Afib. Logging your sleep patterns may help you identify links.
