Premature beats can be divided into atrial, atrioventricular junctional and ventricular premature beats, of which ventricular premature beats are the most common. Frequent premature contractions are usually seen in patients with coronary heart and acute myocarditis or the sequelae of myocarditis. During the attack, the patient feels palpitations or a feeling of being squeezed in the precordial area, and in severe cases, there is dizziness and chest tightness. Premature beats can also be seen in normal people, caused by indigestion, insomnia, plant nervous disorders or low blood potassium. People with premature beats, if they have been properly treated in the hospital, should pay attention to maintaining themselves in various aspects such as diet and living after going home in order to consolidate the effect of treatment and prevent or reduce the attacks of premature beats. Rest: It is better to go to bed early at night, not to stay up late, to ensure naps, and for those who have insomnia, to take sedatives to ensure that the cerebral cortex gets sufficient rest. Otherwise, it may cause disorders in the central nervous system and increase the excitability of the heart muscle and induce premature beats. If there are more premature contractions when the heartbeat is fast, you should rest in bed absolutely; if there are more when the heartbeat is slow, then you should participate in appropriate activities and not rest in bed absolutely. Also, do not watch stressful or stimulating movies or TV to prevent premature contractions from occurring. Diet: It is advisable to be light and choose easily digestible food, eat less soy products, try not to eat stimulating food, and drink less strong tea or coffee. Prevention of ventricular early: pay attention to exercise, avoid high-fat diet. High blood pressure. Smoking and other predisposing factors. Actively prevent and treat upper respiratory tract infections. Avoid emotional excitement, etc. Treatment of ventricular premature: Generally speaking, no special treatment is needed for premature booting without organic heart disease, which occurs occasionally and without symptoms (only 2 or 3 times in a minute). Only frequent ones. Only frequent ventricular premature contractions with significant symptoms or with organic heart disease, such as acute myocardial ischemia, should be treated with medication. It is best to have a detailed electrocardiogram done at the time of the ventricular premature attack. This is the only way to prescribe the right medicine.
