Thus, except perhaps in patients with significant attendant mitral regurgitation, mitral valve prolapse, per se, should not be considered a likely explanation for palpitations. 41 exercise stress testing may help in uncovering evidence of ischemic heart disease, which, in turn, might be contributing to the patient's symptoms. Above and beyond such diagnostic utility, exercise testing also represents a noninvasive modality for inducing suspected arrhythmias in patients with palpitations. This approach is most relevant in individuals with palpitations that are consistently brought on by exercise, if no contraindications to stress testing are found.
Another mechanism of symptom production involves the pause occurring in the wake of an extrasystole. Independent of whether an altered AV sequence is associated with the premature beat, the inotropic potentiation associated with a post-extrasystolic ventricular contraction, especially in contrast to the possibly reduced stroke volume accompanying the extrasystolic beat (reflecting reduced filling time), contributes to a perception of intermittent skipped beats and/or heart pounding. A similar mechanism may be operative in the uncommon scenario in which palpitations are experienced in association with second-degree AV block.
