How is a ventricular ectopic beat diagnosed?
Ventricular ectopic beats are easily seen on an electrocardiogram
What does it mean to have intermittent high blood pressure nauseau palpitation occasional ventricular ectopic beats and feeling of collapse?
myocardial infarction
What type of disease can be find by heart beat?
If you hear a heart mumur, this indicates heart valve disease. If the heart rate is irregular it is either atrial fibrillation or ectopic beats, either atrial or ventricular.
What is the prognosis for ventricular tachycardia?
With appropriate drug or surgical treatment, ventricular tachycardia can be controlled in most people.
How many types of heart rythem-?
There are three types of heart rhythms and they include; Supraventricular arrhythmias,Ventricular arrhythmias,Bradyarrhythmias.
What is supraventricular ectopic activity?
Basically the heart is having extra beats, but it is unclear if those beats are from the atria or ventricles.
Atrial ectopic beats are the same as?
premature atrial contractions (PAC)
Are ventricular ectopic beats dangerous?
PVCs are rarely dangerous. Almost everyone has them from time to time. They can be caused by stress, infection, or overuse of caffiene or other stimulants. PVCs may also be an early warning of other problems such as a thyroid disorder or heart disease. Something to try to be aware of is if the PVCs are perfusing or nonperusing, that is do you have a pulse with these irregular beats? As long as the beats are perfusing there is no risk of your blood pressure being lowered by these missed or irregular beats.
Is ventricular tachycardia a type of abnormal heart rhythm?
Ventricular tachycardia is an abnormal heart rhythm in which the heart beats rapidly due to electrical stimulation coming from the ventricle.
What is the treatment for atrial ectopic beats?
may be triggered or increased by stress, caffeine, smoking, and some medicines. Cold remedies containing ephedrine or pseudoephedrine have been known to increase the incidence of atrial ectopic beats
Why does your heart do two beats ie badum not ba?
One sound is the atrial beat, the other the ventricular one.
What is bigeminy?
Bigeminy is an abnormal heart rhythm where every other beat is abnormal. This can be an abnormal atrial beat (atrial bigeminy), a beat arising from the AV junction or bundle of His (junctional bigeminy), or a ventricular beat (ventricular bigeminy). The pattern is as such: Normal beat... abnormal beat... normal beat.... abnormal beat... normal beat... abnormal beat... repeat.
