Cardiac mortality of premature ventricular complexes in healthy people in Japan [PDF]
Premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) are frequently encountered in healthy people. But the association between PVCs and cardiac events is not well established in Japan. We investigated the association of PVCs and cardiac deaths in people without cardiovascular disease in the Jichi Medical School (JMS) Cohort study.We conducted a prospective cohort ...

Premature Ventricular Complexes: Benign versus Malignant – How to approach?
Premature Ventricular Complexes (PVCs) refer to electrical activity arising from ventricles resulting in ventricular contraction independent of the native rhythm. PVCs by themselves are common in the general population but based on the origin of the PVCs,

Assessment of subtle cardiac dysfunction in patients with frequent premature ventricular complexes by real‐time three‐dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography [PDF]
BackgroundTo evaluate subtle and early premature ventricular complex (PVC)–induced ventricular impairment in patients with frequent PVCs and without structural heart disease by real‐time 3‐dimensional (3D) speckle tracking echocardiography (RT3D‐STE).HypothesisPatients with frequent premature ventricular complexes with normal left ventricular ejection ...

We investigated whether the presence of right ventricular (RV) abnormalities detected by cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) predict adverse outcome in patients presenting with frequent premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) of left bundle branch block (LBBB) morphology.CMR is a component of the diagnostic workup for the differential diagnosis ...

Aims Left ventricular scar is an arrhythmic substrate that may be missed by echocardiography and diagnosed only by cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR), which is a time-consuming and expensive imaging modality.

Management of Premature Ventricular Complexes in the Outpatient Setting.
With an aging population and an explosion in ambulatory electrocardiographic monitoring, primary care clinicians will undoubtedly see an increase in patients presenting with premature ventricular complexes (PVCs), especially given how common they are in ...

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 ...

Does Premature Ventricular Complex Impair Left Ventricular Diastolic Functions?
Background: A higher frequency of premature ventricular complexes is associated with a higher risk of premature ventricular complex-induced cardiomyopathy. Although there are several studies on the systolic functions of the left ventricle in this patient
