What Caused Premature Atrial Contractions (PACs)?
Hi my names nkndra. iWork at a cardiologist office and they had me test out there ECAT so I did. I only wore it for an hour and they told me I have PACs and I had a couplet. I have been having weird palpitations lately and I was wondering what was the cause for the PACs and if I should go see a cardiologist.

Hi i read your query very carefully.
The atrial premature contraction may be caused by:
- excessive use of cafeine, carboinated drinks,
- hormonal problems
- heart disease
