Background A young adult female presented with syncope and periodic weakness. A 12-lead electrocardiogram showed frequent premature ventricular contractions and prolonged QU interval. Repetitive runs ...

Exercise-induced ventricular ectopy predicts an increased risk of death in population-based cohorts. We sought to examine in a clinical cohort the prognostic importance of ventricular ectopy ...

Aug. 22, 2002 — Athletes with multiple and even complex ventricular ectopic beats without structural abnormalities are at low risk for sudden cardiac death and need not forgo competition, according to ...

Cleveland, OH - A new study shows that frequent ventricular ectopy during recovery after exercise is a better predictor of an increased risk of death than ventricular ectopy during exercise. This is ...

Background A 44-year-old female presented with a long history of chest pain, palpitations and increasing dyspnea. Electrocardiography and 24 h Holter monitoring revealed multiple premature ventricular ...

In the last few weeks, the Skeptical Cardiologist has had a run on with patients with premature atrial contractions (PACs). I've discussed in detail premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) here and ...

Is there a simple way to differentiate a supraventricular tachycardia from a ventricular, wide QRS tachycardia on a rhythm strip? The simplest initial approach is to look at the lead with the most ...

Older age was also an independent risk factor for ventricular ectopic burden; lower eGFR linked to high AEB, VEB. (HealthDay News) — Age is a significant independent risk factor for atrial ectopic ...
