10 Ιουλ 2012 · Ventricular premature complexes (VPCs) are commonly encountered in patients with congestive heart failure (CHF). Frequent ventricular ectopy can be associated with deterioration of cardiac function and may lead to VPC-induced cardiomyopathy.
Summary of the treatment of patients with premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) (19) Ventricular ectopic beats (PVCs) are frequently seen in daily clinical practice and are usually benign. Presence of heart disease should be sought and, if absent, indicates good prognosis in patients with PVCs.
ventricular ectopics are found to trigger ventricular fibrillation. Appropriate clinical evaluation and investigations are important in assessing patients with VEBs so that effective treatment can be targeted when necessary. This article discusses the current knowledge and practice in this commonly encountered clinical cardiological problem. c
