Heart and arterial muscle failure to contract normaly "trembling".There so many causes of this problem,some of which are high fat levels, smoking,lack of excercise etc.Prevention measures :
· Don’t smoke. Within five to 10 years of stopping, ex-smokers’ risk of heart disease equals that of non-smokers.
· Maintain your ideal body weight. Extra fat, especially round the waist, strains your heart and arteries.
· Choose an aerobic activity (i.e. one that increases your heart rate), and practise it for at least 30 - 45 minutes at least four times a week. Moderate resistance training can also improve cardiovascular function and reduce the load on your heart.
· Take time out for relaxation, get enough sleep, and ‘don’t sweat the small stuff’. Practise responding to stressful situations as calmly and objectively as possible. If problems become overwhelming, seek a therapist’s help.
· Know your stats. Following a healthy lifestyle helps protect you against heart disease. But that may not be enough; however healthy, every man should have regular checkups and know his blood pressure, blood sugar and cholesterol readings.

do you mean arterial spasm? or atrial fibrilation. Give more details as one involves the arteries and the other involves the heart.
