Premature ventricular contractions are increasingly recognized not only as predictors of arrhythmia but also for their potential etiological association with cardiomyopathy.
Premature ventricular contractions are of common occurrence in routine clinical practice. Though generally perceived as of benign consequence in healthy people in the absence of heart disease, their presence can be a harbinger of fatal ventricular tachyarrhythmia in individuals with structural heart disease. With some of the latest insights into the treatment of ventricular tachyarrhythmia, especially with the advent of catheter ablation, there has been renewed interest in premature ventricular contractions, not only as a predictor of arrhythmia, but also for their potential etiological association with cardiomyopathy.
Saurav et al. (Tue,) conducted a review in Premature Ventricular Contraction-Induced Cardiomyopathy. Premature ventricular contractions was evaluated. Premature ventricular contractions are increasingly recognized not only as predictors of arrhythmia but also for their potential etiological association with cardiomyopathy.
