What should you pay attention to during supraventricular tachycardia

What should we pay attention to when experiencing supraventricular tachycardia? This is a question many people want to ask. Ventricular tachycardia is a manifestation of heart disease and is the abbreviation of supraventricular tachycardia. Patients experience palpitations and discomfort in the precordial area, and an electrocardiogram shows a heart rate of more than 100 beats per minute. This disease is relatively common in clinical practice and can easily cause sudden death. The prevention of this disease is also very important. Patients should pay attention to rest and avoid overwork.

Patients with supraventricular tachycardia should be careful not to be too tired, too excited, or not get enough rest.

If you suddenly have palpitations, panic, and your heart rate is around 150 beats per minute, and it is too late to go to the hospital, you can treat it yourself first.

Method: ---Find a way to make yourself vomit. Vomiting can slow down your heart rate or return to normal.

Paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia is a common arrhythmia, which is a series of clinical manifestations caused by a sudden and sharp increase in heartbeat. Symptoms: When the patient is in a calm state and without any warning signs, the heartbeat suddenly accelerates, with the pulse usually at 160-240 beats/minute, and up to 300 beats/minute for children. The heartbeat also returns to normal suddenly. The duration of the attack varies, from a few seconds to a few days. In most patients, the attack can terminate on its own, but in a few patients, medication is required to terminate the attack. Other symptoms vary in severity. In mild cases, there may only be palpitations, shortness of breath, dizziness, and fatigue. In severe cases, there may be chest pain, difficulty breathing, fainting, convulsions, or shock. The severity of the symptoms depends on the speed of the heart rate during the attack, whether there are other heart diseases and the patient's tolerance. Diagnostic method: The diagnosis can be made by electrocardiogram when the disease occurs. The electrocardiogram may be normal when the disease is not severe. Go to the hospital for an induction test and do an electrocardiogram after induction to confirm the diagnosis. For some patients, the electrocardiogram shows preexcitation syndrome or short PR sign when they are not ill, which is helpful for diagnosis. If the electrocardiogram shows preexcitation syndrome or short PR sign but the patient does not develop any disease, no treatment is required. Note: You cannot engage in special occupations such as driving, diving, etc. before the disease is cured, so as to avoid accidents when the disease suddenly occurs.
