Independent prognostic value of high-risk ventricular premature complexes during exercise or recovery in asymptomatic patients: A meta-analysis of observational studies [PDF]
Indian Heart Journal, 2023 Introduction: Ventricular premature contractions (VPCs) are a common finding during cardiac stress tests. The independent prognostic value of these findings in patients in asymptomatic patients is unclear.

Pathophysiological Mechanisms of Premature Ventricular Complexes [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2020 Premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) are the most common ventricular arrhythmia. Despite the high prevalence, the cause of PVCs remains elusive in most patients.

A Detector for Premature Atrial and Ventricular Complexes [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2021 The relationship between premature atrial complexes (PACs) and atrial fibrillation (AF), stroke and myocardium degradation is unclear. Current PAC detectors are beat classifiers that attain low sensitivity on PAC detection.

Supraventricular Tachycardia Conversion as a Response in Ventricular Premature Complexes [PDF]
JACC: Case ReportsIn 3 similar cases of supraventricular tachycardia, rhythm presented the same conversion mode. In 1 case, tachycardia was terminated with atrial activation, while entrainment maneuvers during an electrophysiology study revealed the same response and ...

Bipolar radiofrequency catheter ablation between the left ventricular endocardium and great cardiac vein for refractory ventricular premature complexes originating from the left ventricular summit [PDF]
Journal of Arrhythmia, 2020 Ablation for ventricular arrhythmias originating from the left ventricular (LV) summit is sometimes challenging. Bipolar radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) is effective for refractory arrhythmias; little is known about bipolar RFCA from the coronary

The Ubiquitous Premature Ventricular Complex [PDF]
Cureus, 2020 Premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) are one of the most commonly encountered arrhythmias and are ubiquitous in clinical practice, both in the outpatient and inpatient settings. They are often discovered incidentally in asymptomatic patients, however, can cause myriad symptoms acutely and chronically.

Management of Common Arrhythmia in the Neurological Intensive Care Unit [PDF]
Journal of Neurocritical Care, 2018 Cardiac arrhythmias are a common problem in the neurological intensive care unit and represent a major cause of ischemic stroke. Significant arrhythmias are most likely to occur in elderly patients.

Ablation of Incessant Premature Ventricular Complex Through Retrograde Transvenous Ethanol Infusion
JACC: Case Reports, 2020 Ethanol infusion has been used for the treatment of ventricular arrhythmia. We describe a case of ethanol infusion through the coronary sinus venous network to treat refractory epicardial premature ventricular complexes.
