Talk:Supraventricular extrasystole

Untitled
I would like to add a section about the Diagnosis, Prognosis, and Treatment to this page. That way, we can all gain a better sense of what the article is about. Additionally, I think it is important to analyze the similarities between the diagnosis "Supraventricular extrasystole" and "Premature atrial contraction". I plan to add these sections in the coming weeks. This term is additionally not to be confused with a "Supraventricular tachycardia" which is a slightly different concept. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aventola (talk • contribs) 01:44, 14 February 2017 (UTC)


 * Nicolecutrone and Aventola, the organization you have proposed for this article will be a helpful layout to expand on the lack of information. I think clarifying the differences and similarities between similar diagnoses like "Premature atrial contraction" or "Supraventricular tachycardia" will be important information to add. None of the information in the existing article is cited, so that might be a good first step in your editing. Aventola, the information in your sandbox is helpful so far, but be sure to include all appropriate citations. For the Prognosis section in your sandbox, I believe the footnote comes after the period. There is an unnecessary comma in your last sentence--maybe change this to "...and is characterized as a precursor to stroke according to recent research." Finally, I think there is an error with your second source; it says to fix the access date. Nicolecutrone, I like your proposed additions about the malfunctioning of action potentials. It may help to briefly define what the QRS complex is. I am not sure if your third and fifth sources listed in your sandbox are reliable, but the others look reputable. I think the last pieces of information in your sandbox were meant as notes, but I think this information could be integrated into the lead section upon further editing.--Kbrodowski1 (talk) 20:28, 26 February 2017 (UTC)

Aventola, the information you plan on adding to the existing article is relevant and will be highly informative considering the lack of information currently existing. Under the “draft your article” subheading, I recommend making your tone a little more encyclopedic. Try removing qualifying words like “important” and “very fancy” so that the tone of your sections will match more with Wikipedia’s ideology. I also recommend expanding upon the treatment and diagnosis of this condition, as well as highlighting the differences between supra ventricular extrasystole and premature atrial contraction.

Nicolecutrone, in terms of grammar and style, I recommend following the word “this” with a noun. Your tone is encyclopedic and appropriate. The information you have provided in your sandbox is relevant and important to understanding what the topic is, especially what an ECG would look like for this condition. Your sources look reliable. Again, I recommend highlighting the differences between this condition and premature atrial contraction. APuma1 (talk) 23:43, 28 February 2017 (UTC)
