Systole Ectopic Beat, Extrasystole

Ectopic systole (Ectopic Beat), Extrasystole (Extrasystole) is a cardiac contraction that occurs under the influence of an impulse generated in any part of the heart, but outside its sinoatrial node. Ectopic systoles are usually premature, preceding the onset of normal cardiac contraction; they are called supraventricular if they arise in the atria, and ventricular if the site of their formation is the ventricles.

Ectopic systoles can be observed in various heart diseases, under the influence of nicotine in smokers, or when a person consumes excessive tea or coffee; they also occur in healthy people. The patient may not even be aware of them, or it may seem to him that his heart is “skipping” individual beats.

Ectopic systoles are eliminated with the help of medicinal substances such as quinidine, propranolol and lignocaine; Quitting smoking and reducing tea and coffee consumption also help eliminate them. See Arrhythmia.

Ectopic systole and extrasystole are cardiac dysfunctions that occur under the influence of premature heart contractions. These changes occur due to the presence of special impulse-generating sites within the heart that do not correspond to the normal cardiac circuitry. In fact, these abnormalities in the heart cause malfunctions when one stage of the cardiac cycle is missing to supply blood to the body earlier. This article defines ectopic systole and extrasytolia in more detail.

1. Extrasystole Extrasystole is premature or early, or normal, but is interrupted by a disturbance in the movement of blood inside or below the ventricles. In this case, a blockade of the sinoatrial junction occurs, which causes ventricular failure. Extrasystole can be caused by a lack of oxygen, electrical dysfunction of the heart, or even after exercise. An extra-sensitic case can be prevented or cured with the help of medications
