i have couplets and tplets which are also called nsvt..i have had all the tests and im fine so i just got to deal...Gina
Now I know what Ive been having. I, too, have been wondering what those terms are. When mine are at their worst, I probably have a mix of ALL of them! Anybody else like that??
Bigimeny refers to a pattern of ectopic (extra) beats every other beat
Trigimeny refers to a pattern of ectopic beats every third beat.
Quadrigeminy referes to a pattern of ectopic beats every fourth beat.
Couplet is two consecutive ectopic beats.
Triplet is three consecutive ectopic beats.
Hope that helps : )
Have a great day!
