Popis: | Premature Ventricular Complexes Background Frequent premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) can be eliminated with an ablation procedure. Ablation success rates have been reported to be in the 80% range. Reasons for failure of ablation have not been described in detail. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the paucity of PVCs at the beginning of the ablation procedure affects the outcome. Methods Catheter ablation was attempted in a consecutive series of 194 patients (age: 50 ± 14 years, 91 male, ejection fraction: 56.4 ± 8.4%) with frequent idiopathic PVCs. Based on receiver operator characteristics (ROC) analysis, patients were divided into 2 groups: Patients with frequent PVCs (≥32 PVCs within the first 30 minutes of the procedure: n = 135 [70%]); and patients with infrequent PVCs ( |
