Ventricular premature beat bigeminy is a kind of arrhythmia, which refers to the phenomenon that a ventricular premature beat suddenly appears in normal sinus rhythm, followed by a normal sinus beat, followed by another ventricular premature beat, and so on. The occurrence of ventricular premature beat bigeminy may be related to many factors, such as overwork, emotional excitement, smoking, drinking alcohol, drinking coffee, etc.
In addition, some heart diseases may also lead to ventricular premature beat bigeminy, such as coronary heart disease, cardiomyopathy, myocarditis, etc. Coronary heart disease is a heart disease caused by myocardial ischemia and hypoxia caused by coronary atherosclerosis. Coronary atherosclerotic plaques in patients with coronary heart disease may lead to stenosis or obstruction of blood vessels, thus affecting the blood supply to the myocardium. Cardiac ischemia may lead to arrhythmias, including ventricular premature bigeminy. However, it should be noted that ventricular premature bigeminy may also occur in people without heart disease, especially in young people. This condition may be related to autonomic nervous dysfunction, electrolyte disturbances, drug side effects, etc. Therefore, patients with ventricular premature beat bigeminy need detailed evaluation, including medical history, physical examination, ECG examination, cardiac ultrasound examination, etc. to determine whether there is cardiac disease. If the patient also has other cardiovascular risk factors, such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, smoking, etc., or if the ventricular premature beat is frequent, accompanied by obvious symptoms or may lead to severe arrhythmia, further examination and treatment may be required. In short, ventricular premature beat may be one of the manifestations of coronary heart disease, but it may also be related to other factors. For patients with ventricular premature beats, they should seek medical attention in time, conduct detailed evaluation and diagnosis, and take corresponding treatment measures according to specific conditions.
