Episodic premature ventricular beats come in paired dyads and triads, which is one of the common types of arrhythmia. Episodic premature beats indicate a relatively low frequency and usually do not lead to serious consequences.
Premature ventricular dysthymia is when a normal sinus rhythm beat is followed by a premature ventricular beat. Premature ventricular beats in triple rhythm are when every two normal sinus beats are followed by a premature ventricular beat.
The occurrence of premature ventricular beats may be related to physiologic factors such as emotional stress, late nights, heavy alcohol consumption, and drinking strong tea. It may also be caused by organic pathologies such as electrolyte disorders, coronary artery disease, myocarditis, and hyperthyroidism.
For episodic ventricular premature beats in paired duplex and triple rhythm, if the patient has no obvious primary disease and clinical symptoms, there is no need for special treatment. If there is a primary disease, treatment should be directed at the cause.
Patients with episodic premature ventricular beats in paired dysthymia and triple rhythm should be referred to the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine of the hospital. Those who need it should be treated under the guidance of a doctor so as not to affect their personal health.
