In general, multiple premature ventricular beats are somewhat more serious than single premature ventricular beats.
Single ventricular premature beats are those that have only one particularly excited excitation point at the site of origin, and are generally not particularly serious, but if the patient has a large number of premature beats, there is a possibility of developing ventricular tachycardia, which needs to be treated with medications such as metoprolol and amiodarone as prescribed by the doctor.
Multiple premature ventricular beats refer to multiple ectopic excitatory points on the ventricular muscle, because of the different sites of origin, so in the electrocardiogram manifested as ventricular premature morphology varies, commonly found in hypertension, coronary artery disease, cardiomyopathy and other organic lesions, there is the possibility of inducing ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation and other malignant arrhythmia, which may result in sudden death, and is generally more serious than a single premature ventricular.
It is recommended that when patients experience panic, sweating and other discomforts, they should go to the hospital in time for examination of electrocardiogram or 24-hour dynamic electrocardiogram, etc., and then follow the doctor’s instructions for active treatment after a clear diagnosis.
