What is the correct sleeping position for patients with premature beats?

The correct sleeping positions for premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) patients generally include elevated pillow lying, semi-reclining, and right lateral recumbent positions, which are beneficial for improving clinical symptoms.

1. Elevated Pillow Lying Position: Excessive fatigue and alcohol consumption may lead to PVCs. After developing the condition, patients may experience symptoms such as palpitations and chest tightness, while some patients may simultaneously experience shortness of breath and dizziness. Adopting an elevated pillow lying position after illness can, to a certain extent, reduce the burden on the heart and alleviate clinical symptoms.

2. Semi-Reclining Position: This position can also promote blood return and alleviate PVC symptoms such as palpitations and tachycardia. However, it is important to avoid maintaining the semi-reclining position for too long to prevent affecting the health of the lumbar and cervical spines.

3. Right Lateral Recumbent Position: As the heart of most people is located on the left side of the chest, lying on the right side can prevent the heart from being compressed, thereby facilitating heart ejection. While lying on the right side, the body can naturally bend, which helps improve sleep quality.

In addition to the above common positions, severely affected patients can adopt the upright sitting position, which can effectively relieve discomfort in the heart.
