Cardiac dysfunction induced by premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) is relatively controversial and challenging to detect in the early stage. In this observational study, we retrospectively analyzed the cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) data of 94 patients with frequent premature ventricular beats (47 males, 49.83 ± 13.63 years) and 98 ...

Factors predictive for delayed enhancement in cardiac resonance imaging in patients undergoing catheter ablation of premature ventricular complexes [PDF]
Background: Patients undergoing ablation of premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) can have cardiac scar. Risk factors for the presence of scar are not well defined.

Co‐occurrence of late potential and discrete prepotential on ablation site in a case of cardiac crux located premature ventricular complexes successfully ablated within the middle cardiac vein [PDF]
Some premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) originate from the coronary venous system. The great cardiac vein and the anterior cardiac vein are the most frequent localizations.

Impact of origin and frequency of premature ventricular complexes on cardiac remodeling: a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
Background Frequent premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) have been associated with adverse cardiac remodeling; however, the relative contributions of PVC frequency and anatomical origin remain unclear. This study evaluated the effects of PVC burden and

Premature ventricular complexes are common in healthy individuals' ambulatory monitoring. The index of cardiac-electrophysiological balance may predict malignant ventricular arrhythmias. This study investigated the relation between Premature ventricular complex burden and index of cardiac-electrophysiological balance in 24-h Holter monitoring.A total ...

Delayed cardiac tamponade following catheter ablation of frequent premature ventricular complexes: a case report [PDF]
Background Cardiac tamponade is a potentially fatal complication after catheter ablation of ventricular arrhythmias. It often happens during or shortly after the procedure and needs urgent treatment.

Sudden cardiac arrest in an athlete due to dilated cardiomyopathy masquerading as athlete's heart: a case report [PDF]
BackgroundSudden cardiac arrest (SCA) in athletes is a rare but catastrophic event, most often associated with underlying cardiac pathology. Differentiating physiological remodeling (“athlete's heart”) from pathological conditions such as cardiomyopathy ...

Cardiac Arrest due to Recurrent Ventricular Fibrillation Triggered by Unifocal Ventricular Premature Complexes in a Silent Myocardial Infarction [PDF]
A 51-year-old male patient was referred for a sudden out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Upon arrival, he was conscious and had no chest pain complaints. There was no abnormality in initial electrocardiographic and echocardiographic examinations.
