Clinical Applications of Dynamic Electrocardiography: The Frequency of Ventricular Tachyarrhythmias and Ventricular Premature Beats in Asymptomatic Patients,
Abstract
Dynamic electrocardiograms were recorded from 1,108 patients on 1,421 occasions in an attempt to evaluate the association of ventricular arrhythmias with the presence or absence of significant symptomatology in a predominantly ambulatory population. The detailed statistical analysis of the ventricular arrhythmias encountered in these recordings are presented in this paper. Since paroxysmal ventricular tachycardia (PVT) is considered to be an extremely ominous arrhythmia, its occurrence in the study was analyzed in detail and the results are discussed.
