Patient's question:
I am a programmer. Recently, I have been feeling unwell and have been experiencing recurrent palpitations. I went to the hospital for a thorough examination, and the electrocardiogram showed that I have frequent premature beats. I am very concerned. Here, I mainly want to consult about how to treat frequent premature beats. Please guide me, doctor.Doctor's answer:
If you frequently experience chest tightness, shortness of breath, or difficulty breathing, it is likely that there is a high possibility of cardiac disease. This is commonly seen in conditions such as arrhythmia, coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction, etc. A careful examination of a 24-hour electrocardiogram (ECG), cardiac ultrasound, or even coronary angiography can help diagnose the condition. If there are frequent atrial premature beats or premature ventricular beats, it indicates the presence of arrhythmia, and active anti-arrhythmic treatment should be initiated.
