Premature Ventricular Contractions (PVCs) are an abnormal cardiac phenomenon characterized by untimely contractions originating in the heart's ventricles, disrupting the normal heartbeat rhythm. These premature contractions can lead to irregular patterns, causing palpitations or a fluttering sensation in the chest. Although infrequent PVCs are often considered benign, their persistence or increased frequency may be indicative of an underlying heart condition. Various factors contribute to the onset of PVCs, including heightened stress levels, excessive caffeine intake, specific medications, or pre-existing heart diseases. Monitoring and understanding these triggers are crucial in managing and preventing recurrent PVCs. Seeking medical attention is imperative for those experiencing persistent or discomforting symptoms associated with PVCs.
