Abstract
Abstract
Aim. This review aimed to explore the issue of cardiac arrhythmias in people with subarachnoid hemorrhage.
Background. Intracranial injuries may cause cardiac arrhythmia and structural changes. Between 25-90% of patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage experience cardiac arrhythmia. In case of inappropriate diagnosis, unnecessary workup and treatment may be done.
Method. The studies published between 2000 and 2017 were searched for in databases and search engines Google Scholar, Pumped, Science Direct, Magiran, and SID by the keywords electrocardiogram, arrhythmia, ECG abnormalities, intracranial hemorrhage, subarachnoid hemorrhage and their Persian equals.
Findings. Provoking the autoimmune system by stimulating the hypothalamus and increasing the circulating catecholamines in patients with cerebrovascular bleeding are two significant mechanisms responsible for cardiac arrhythmias and myocardial damage.
Conclusion. The timely diagnosis of electrocardiographic changes in patients with cerebral hemorrhage is one of the effective factors in determining the prognosis and deterioration of clinical status. It seems that taking the exact medical history, recording ECG at the time of patient admission, and diagnosing the cerebral hemorrhage, in particular subarachnoid hemorrhage, are necessary measures in the health care centers.

Abstract
Abstract
Aim. The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of acceptance-based therapy and emotion-based cognitive therapy on psychological well-being of patients with cardiac arrhythmia.
Background. The study of heart disease has long been noted by psychological factors because an individual with cardiac arrhythmias may suffer from mental well-being.
Method. This was a quasi-experimental study and to collect the data, a pre-test-post-test design with two experimental and one control group was used. The statistical population of the study consisted of all cardiac arrhythmia patients of Amirabad Heart Hospital in Tehran, out of which 60 people were selected by convenience sampling method and randomly divided into two experimental groups (20 people in each group) and one control group (20). The tools used in the present study included mental well-being (Reef, 1995), which were used in two stages of pre-test and post-test.
Findings. According to the findings, the mean score of psychological well-being in both experimental groups (acceptance-based therapy and emotion-based cognitive therapy) increased in the post-test stage compared to the pre-test, and these interventions increased the score of psychological well-being components in patients with heart arrhythmia compared to control group.
Conclusion. Clinicians can use these interventions (acceptance-based therapy and emotion-based cognitive therapy) in patients with cardiac arrhythmias to promote psychological well-being and recovery.
