Clinical trials: Contraction
Premature Ventricular Contractions, Congestive Heart Failure
Early Elimination of Premature Ventricular Contractions in Heart Failure
Premature ventricular contractions (PVC) are a very common irregular heart beat (arrhythmias) even in patients without heart disease. Frequent PVCs are thought to occur in about 1-4% of the general population.
