What are the causes of premature heart beats?

The term premature beats is relatively unfamiliar to most patients, but patients with heart disease know that premature beats are a relatively common type of arrhythmia. They often occur during a heart attack, and the frequent beats can cause patients to experience symptoms such as nausea, heart pain, and difficulty breathing. Therefore, patients must know that many reasons can lead to premature beats, and they need to be treated in a timely manner.

Causes of premature heart beats include:

In fact, many of the causes of premature heart beats are the same as other heart diseases. High mental stress, bad living habits, medication errors, lack of proper exercise, and underlying heart disease. These can all trigger premature heart beats.

We can take a few examples to understand it in detail, such as: mental stress and bad living habits. Because high emotional tension and great psychological pressure are the main causes of functional "premature beats". Just imagine that a normal person faces great mental stress every day and has unreasonable living habits. In the long run, in addition to causing diseases such as premature heart beats, it is also likely to cause other harm to the body. So this is the main cause of premature beats. People with similar situations should pay attention and adjust their lifestyles and habits in time.

Lack of proper exercise. In fact, we also need to take time to exercise in our busy schedule. The long-term stress of life needs to be released; and exercise is a very good way to relieve stress. In addition to exercising the body, it can also relieve one's own stress.

A normal person with underlying heart disease may also suffer from premature heart beats if he or she does not live an appropriate lifestyle, not to mention patients with other heart diseases. Therefore, such patients should pay more attention to their own conditions because their chances of getting sick are relatively higher than normal people.

What are the tests for premature heart beats?

1. 24-hour dynamic electrocardiogram monitoring

Also known as llolter monitoring. That is, tracking the 24-hour electrocardiogram to observe the number and nature of premature beats, and their relationship with activity and sleep, etc.

2. Color Doppler echocardiography

Abbreviated as cardiac color Doppler ultrasound. It is the main detection method for observing heart structure and function.

3. Treadmill exercise test

Abbreviated as treadmill exercise test. According to the patient's specific situation, the specific amount of exercise is calculated, and the patient exercises on a planar monitor to observe the occurrence of premature beats during the exercise in order to determine the relationship between premature beats and exercise.
