The nurse must assess the patient's Blood pressure and oxygen saturation, heart rate hourly once.

  • Also significantly look onto the changes in the ECG, added with the pressure gradient changes in the MAP as well. Premature ventricular contractions can affect hemodynamics.
  • As a result, the first priority is to monitor blood pressure and oxygen saturation.
  • Reduced cardiac output can result from a shorter ventricular filling time.
  • The patient may be asymptomatic or experience palpitations.

Premature ventricular contractions can be induced by heart abnormalities, hypoxemia, or a variety of physiological stressors such as infection, illness, surgery, or trauma, as well as coffee, nicotine, or alcohol consumption.

  • Exercise stress testing can measure ischemia and provide important prognostic information in patients with effort-related symptoms and probable obstructive coronary disease.
  • PVCs during exertion may be caused by underlying ischemia or by adrenergic or catecholamine-sensitive arrhythmias (for example, hereditary channelopathies).
  • Exercise testing in conjunction with ambulatory monitoring can be used to determine the efficiency of antiarrhythmic drug treatment in patients whose PVCs are caused by exercise.
