Popis: In summary, Holter data from the 17,609 postmyocardial infarction patients in the CAST Registry were analyzed to study the effect of age on VPC and VT incidence and frequency. Multivariable analysis demonstrated that age is an important independent predictor of increased ventricular ectopy, with the median rate of VPCs/hour increasing from 0.4 (patients aged
