Premature ventricular contraction (PVC) can cause great harm to human health. Both invasive and non-invasive techniques for detecting electrical activity of PVC or locating ectopic pacemakers are used ...

Just a dozen patients have undergone the new treatment that uses electrical pulses to target problem areas inside the heart.

Abstract: Objective: Detection of Atrial fibrillation (AF) from premature atrial contraction (PAC) and premature ventricular contraction (PVC) is difficult as frequent occurrences of these ectopic ...

Background A short-long-short sequence of cycle lengths predisposes to reentrant tachyarrhythmias. There is limited information about the effects of premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) on ...

Children and adolescents have an increased risk for cardiovascular disease after SARS-CoV-2 infection compared with uninfected individuals, according to results of a study in Nature Communications.

In our cohort, 38% of patients presented premature atrial contractions and 25% premature ventricular contractions. This is even less than what has been described in healthy children.

Background The relationship between stroke and non-atrial fibrillation cardiac arrhythmias remains unclear. Frequent premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) are associated with impaired ventricular ...

Objective Intraventricular haemorrhage is still the most common cause of brain lesion in preterm infants and development of a posthaemorrhagic ventricular dilatation (PHVD) can lead to additional ...

A research team at Toho University has revealed that ferulic acid (FA), a polyphenol abundant in rice bran, suppresses intestinal smooth muscle contractions by inhibiting voltage-dependent calcium ...

Background: Recently, it has been reported that frequent premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) may be associated with causing heart failure in patients with left ventricular (LV) dysfunction.
