A member asked:
What does it mean if the test says i have 20% supraventricular ectopy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It means: That one out of every five heart beats originates from an area in the top part of your heart other than the usual place it should. This is not dangerous but may be annoying to some patients. If it bothers you then ask your health care provider to treat you for it.
