Clinical Significance[2]
Clinical Significance[2]
- PVCs are a normal electrophysiological phenomenon and rarely require treatment.
- Recurrent PVCs can cause palpitations and "a sense of the heart 'skipping a beat.' "
- PVCs can trigger the onset of Ventricular Tachycardia in patients with underlying predispositions, such as ischaemic heart disease and WPW.
