The Premature Ventricular Complex as a Diagnostic Aid
Annals of Internal Medicine, 1992Premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) can provide clues to the physical or electrocardiographic diagnosis through the associated compensatory pause, the break in the regularity of the rhythm, or the morphology of the PVC itself. A PVC may allow visualization of the P wave or of atrial flutter waves that would otherwise be obscured in the ...

Premature Ventricular Complexes
JAMA, 1984APPROXIMATELY every minute in the United States, one person dies of sudden cardiac death. This accounts for more than one half of all deaths due to coronary artery disease, a disease that also commonly displays the syndromes of angina pectoris and acute myocardial infarction.

Variability of Ventricular Premature Complexes and Mortality Risk
Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, 1996A method using a parameter from the field of nonlinear dynamics to quantify the variability of ventricular premature complexes (VPCs) is presented. One hundred patients with coronary artery disease and ≥ 10 VPCs/hour were included in the studv. The RR intervals were plotted in a three‐dimensional artificial phase space, and the structures in phase ...

Premature Ventricular Complexes in Apparently Normal Hearts
Cardiac Electrophysiology Clinics, 2016Premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) are consistently associated with worse prognosis and higher morbidity and mortality. This article reviews PVCs and their presentation in patients with an apparently normal heart. Patients with PVCs may be completely asymptomatic, whereas others may note severely disabling symptoms.

The Ventricular Premature Complex
2020In this chapter the author discusses the historical aspects, prevalence, clinical presentation of the ventricular premature complex (VPC) including VPC-related cardiomyopathy, as well as the types and origin of VPCs, and the treatment of benign and malignant forms of VPCs.

Ablation of frequent premature ventricular complex in an athlete
Scandinavian Journal of Medicine & Science in Sports, 2014Premature ventricular complex are common findings in the exam of many athletes. There is no extensive scientific evidence in the management of this situation particularly when associated with borderline contractile function of the left ventricle. In this case report, we present a 35‐year‐old asymptomatic healthy athlete with high incidence (over 10 000

Concealed ventricular premature complexes in a population sample
The American Journal of Cardiology, 1986One hundred fifty patients were analyzed with a random sample of patients whose Holter recordings indicated ventricular premature complexes (VPCs). Thirty-five patients (23%) had more than 30 VPCs/hour. Of these 35 patients, 19 had concealed VPCs.

Effect of acebutolol and propranolol on premature ventricular complexes
Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics, 1980A double-blind, randomized study comparing the efficacy of intravenous acebutolol with propranolol on frequent premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) in 24 patients is reported. Frequent PVCs were abolished or reduced by 75% or more in 10 of 12 patients (83%) given acebutolol and in 10 of 12 patients (83%) given propranolol.
