Is premature beats a heart disease? What are premature beats related to?

Premature beats are a disease caused by arrhythmia. The patient's heart beats abnormally, resulting in irregular heartbeats, affecting normal blood circulation, causing breathing difficulties for the patient, and may even be caused by improper medication. Premature beats cannot be completely caused by heart disease, and may also be caused by cardiomyopathy and myocardial inflammation.

It can be identified from the following aspects:

1. Frequency of premature beats: Premature beats less than 5 times per minute are called occasional premature beats, and premature beats more than 6 times per minute are called frequent premature beats. Most pathological premature beats occur frequently.

2. Types of premature beats: Physiological premature beats are generally single, while multi-source premature beats are mostly manifestations of pathological myocardial damage.

3. Premature beats are affected by exercise: Physiological premature beats often disappear after exercise, while the number of pathological premature beats may increase after exercise.

Of course, the above distinction is not absolute. Diseases are complex and varied, and each person's situation is different. Premature beats are not necessarily accompanied by symptoms, and the severity of the disease cannot be judged solely by whether or not there are symptoms, but a preliminary judgment can be made based on relevant medical history. People with chronic heart disease are often prone to myocardial damage and premature beats; those with a recent history of colds, fevers, and diarrhea may also suffer from acute viral myocarditis.
