Key result
The American College of Cardiology Electrophysiology Council provides updated diagnostic and therapeutic considerations for the clinical management of premature ventricular complexes.
Why the study?
Although generally considered benign, premature ventricular complexes can lead to cardiomyopathy and rarely sudden cardiac death, requiring updated diagnostic and therapeutic considerations for clinical practice.
This document summarizes key messages from the ACC Electrophysiology Council's state-of-the-art review on the diagnosis and management of premature ventricular complexes.
Premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) are one of the most common arrhythmias seen in daily practice. Although PVCs are generally considered benign, they can lead to the development of cardiomyopathy and, rarely, can be associated with sudden cardiac death. Recently, the American College of Cardiology Electrophysiology Council published a state-of-the-art review on PVCs to provide diagnostic and therapeutic considerations for clinical practice. Presented are some important points about the diagnosis, approach, and treatment of PVCs.
