Frequent ventricular premature beats refer to the occurrence of more than five ventricular premature beats per minute. Ventricular premature beats, also known as ventricular premature contractions, can occur in patients without structural heart disease, as well as in those with structural heart disease. For frequent ventricular premature beats occurring on the basis of structural heart disease, it is necessary to actively treat the underlying heart disease. Some ventricular premature beats can also be treated with radiofrequency ablation surgery to reduce their occurrence. In daily life, it is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, reasonably plan work and life activities, reduce mental stress, avoid extreme emotional fluctuations, avoid overwork and staying up late, and ensure sufficient sleep.

Can ventricular premature beats be cured?

Whether ventricular premature beats can be cured depends on the underlying disease causing it. In healthy populations, ventricular premature beats occur due to unstable autonomic nerve function or during the growth and development phase in young adults; these functional ventricular premature beats generally do not require medication. By regulating the autonomic nerves and engaging in appropriate aerobic exercise, these premature beats can be cured. However, frequent ventricular premature beats caused by organic heart disease need to be treated with anti-arrhythmic drugs while treating the primary disease; this can reduce ventricular premature beats and alleviate clinical symptoms, but generally cannot be cured. (Specific medication use should be carried out under the guidance of a doctor.)

Is ventricular premature beat a heart disease?

Ventricular premature beats can occur in the normal population, caused by autonomic nervous dysfunction. These premature beats are not considered heart disease. However, ventricular premature beats caused by certain heart diseases are considered heart disease. Common heart diseases include congenital heart disease, viral myocarditis, rheumatic heart disease, coronary artery disease, and pulmonary heart disease. These diseases lead to myocardial damage and ischemia, causing abnormal conduction rhythms, resulting in premature beats. Treatment should be provided based on different causes, and the premature beats should be corrected simultaneously.

Can premature ventricular contractions be cured?

Ventricular premature beats are a relatively common type of cardiac arrhythmia clinically, divided into benign and malignant premature beats. Benign premature beats refer to physiological premature beats occurring in healthy individuals, caused by autonomic dysfunction due to excessive drinking, smoking, staying up late, etc. This type of premature beat does not require medicinal treatment; it can heal itself through adjusting lifestyle, enhancing nutrition and exercise, resting adequately, and quitting smoking and drinking. Malignant premature beats caused by organic heart disease can also achieve clinical cure if the primary disease is treated early and antiarrhythmic drugs are used simultaneously.

Are atrial premature beats and ventricular premature beats serious?

Atrial premature beats and ventricular premature beats are very common types of arrhythmia in our daily life. Generally, most atrial premature beats and ventricular premature beats are not serious, do not involve organic heart disease, and usually do not cause symptoms. The occurrence of these atrial and ventricular premature beats is often related to factors such as staying up late, fatigue, anxiety, drinking strong tea, or coffee. If the cardiac ultrasound and blood tests for thyroid function are normal, then these premature beats are not serious and will not affect health. Generally, no special treatment is needed and there is no need for concern.
