What is the difference between ventricular premature beats and atrial premature beats?

Ventricular premature beats and atrial premature beats have no different clinical symptoms; both present feelings of chest tightness and shortness of breath. They require an electrocardiogram (ECG) for diagnosis, where the differentiation between ventricular and atrial premature beats is made based on the differences in the waveform. Whether it is ventricular or atrial premature beats, if they are caused by discriminatory heart disease, it is necessary to treat the primary disease under the guidance of a doctor, while also correcting the premature beats. If the premature beats are caused by autonomic dysfunction, it is necessary to ensure rest, balance work and leisure, appropriately increase aerobic exercise, and enhance the heart's rhythmicity.

Can ventricular premature beats be cured?

Ventricular premature beats, also known as ventricular premature contractions, are a very common type of arrhythmia in our daily lives. Can ventricular premature beats be cured? The answer is definitely yes, ventricular premature beats can be cured. When ventricular premature beats occur frequently, or even with obvious symptoms, this type of ventricular premature beat can be radically treated through radiofrequency ablation surgery, which achieves the goal of cure. Of course, if the ventricular premature beats occur only occasionally, with infrequent episodes and no obvious symptoms, generally, this type of ventricular premature beats often does not require special treatment.
