ROCHESTER, NY — About a third of patients with nonischemic disease in a major cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) trial had cardiomyopathy related to premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) that ...
A 67‑year‑old man with ischemic cardiomyopathy (left ventricular [LV] ejection fraction, 30%), recurrent sustained monomorphic ventricular tachycardia (VT), prior implantation of a left bundle ...
WASHINGTON, DC — A higher percentage of premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) predicted a dropoff in LV ejection fraction and a greater risk of incident heart failure and mortality in a long-term ...
Catheter ablation for irregular heartbeats is mainstream and becoming even more common, with well more than 235,000 such procedures performed annually. Premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) are ...

A common treatment for irregular heartbeats known as catheter ablation may result in the formation of brain lesions when it is performed on the left side of the heart, according to new research at UC ...
Ventricular tachycardia arises from an abnormal electrical focus or circuit in the myocardium of the ventricle and is usually manifested as a tachyarrhythmia with a wide QRS complex on ...
Catheter-based pulmonary vein isolation is an effective treatment for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Pulsed field ablation, which delivers microsecond high-voltage electrical fields, may limit damage ...
