How to prevent single atrial premature beats

Maybe some of you have heard of the symptom of single atrial premature beat, but there are definitely not many people who really understand it. After all, single atrial premature beat is not a common symptom. However, due to the great harm of single atrial premature beat, it is still necessary for us to learn more about it. In the following article, we will introduce to you how to prevent single atrial premature beat.

Atrial premature contractions originate from any part of the atrium except the atrial node. In a 24-hour ECG test of normal adults, about 60% of them have atrial premature contractions. Atrial premature contractions can occur in patients with various organic heart diseases, and are often a precursor to the occurrence of rapid atrial arrhythmias.

When atrial premature contractions occur, we must first determine whether they are physiological or pathological.

1. If it is a physiological condition, various inducements can be eliminated, such as mental tension, emotional excitement, smoking, drinking, excessive fatigue, anxiety, indigestion, etc. Avoid excessive intake of coffee or strong tea, etc. Take an appropriate amount of sedatives when necessary.

2. If it is a pathological situation, especially if there is an organic lesion, such as premature atrial contractions caused by hyperthyroidism, hypoxia due to lung disease, digitalis poisoning, electrolyte disorder, etc., the primary disease should be actively treated. For patients with organic heart disease, the treatment should also target the heart disease itself, such as improving coronary artery blood supply for coronary heart disease, anti-rheumatic treatment for active rheumatism, and treatment of heart failure. When the heart condition improves or recovers, premature atrial contractions can often be reduced or disappear.

In the above article, we introduced a relatively rare symptom, which is single atrial premature beat. We know that single atrial premature beat is very harmful, so we must pay attention to this symptom. The above article introduces in detail how to prevent single atrial premature beat.
