👉 The term "crosshead" is a medical term used to describe an irregular heartbeat, typically seen in patients with certain conditions such as atrial fibrillation or arrhythmia. It is characterized by periods of rapid heartbeats that occur without any underlying cause and can be accompanied by other symptoms like shortness of breath, nausea, and fatigue. Crossheads are often treated with medications to control the rhythm of the heartbeat and improve blood flow to important organs such as the lungs and brain.
