ROCHESTER, NY — About a third of patients with nonischemic disease in a major cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) trial had cardiomyopathy related to premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) that ...
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 ...
A colleague recently asked me how I would approach an asymptomatic young patient with thousands of premature ventricular complexes (PVCs). She said, "I used to think I knew how to treat PVCs, but ...
Recent advances have enabled noninvasive mapping of cardiac arrhythmias with electrocardiographic imaging and noninvasive delivery of precise ablative radiation with stereotactic body radiation ...
Introduction: Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of outflow tract ventricular arrhythmia (VA) that originates from the aortic cusps can be challenging. Data on long-term efficacy and safety as well as ...
The Amsterdam UMC team, shown here, performed the VT ablation procedure following previous experiences performing atrial flutter and premature ventricular complex (PVC) ablation procedures guided by ...

Recurrent ventricular tachycardia among survivors of myocardial infarction with an implantable cardioverter–defibrillator (ICD) is frequent despite antiarrhythmic drug therapy. The most effective ...
A premature ventricular contraction occurs when a focus in the ventricle generates an action potential before the next scheduled sinoatrial nodal action potential. Premature, occurring earlier than ...
