Are those Premature Ventricular Complexes?!
The American Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2014Ventricular parasystole has been known to be a benign rhythm. We present a case of a 53-year-old man with chest pain and ventricular parasystole on electrocardiogram upon initial presentation. He was admitted and found to have normal serial cardiac enzymes and nuclear stress testing. He was discharged home with primary care follow-up. We highlight this

Premature Ventricular Complexes as a Trigger for Ventricular Fibrillation
Revista Española de Cardiología (English Edition), 2010The mechanisms that trigger ventricular fibrillation (VF) are poorly understood. The aim of this study was to analyze the initiation of VF in electrograms stored in implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs).We analyzed ICD electrograms from patients who had suffered at least one episode of VF.Of 250 patients with ICDs, 13 (10 male and 3 female ...

Management of Premature Ventricular Complexes in the Outpatient Setting
Mayo Clinic Proceedings, 2023With 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 the general population. A sizable number of patients with PVCs are asymptomatic, and these PVCs have

Hyperinsulinemia is associated with ventricular premature complexes
Metabolism, 1996The study investigated a possible association between fasting plasma insulin (FPI) levels and ventricular premature complexes (VPCs). One hundred eighty-six subjects without coronary artery disease (CAD), diabetes, hypertension, and left ventricular hypertrophy were recruited.

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.

Treatment of premature ventricular complexes with acebutolol
The American Journal of Cardiology, 1979The effect of intravenous acebutolol versus saline solution on frequent premature ventricular complexes was evaluated in a double-blind, randomized study in 20 patients, including 3 with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Frequent premature ventricular complexes were abolished or reduced by 75% or more in none of 12 patients given saline solution ...

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 ...

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.
