He then used this approach to teach patients to control their rate of premature ventricular contractions ( PVCs ), where the ventricles contract too soon.

A similar phenomenon, pseudo-alternans, can be seen in bigeminal ( premature ventricular contraction ) PVC in the PR interval, alternans pre-excitation, and alternans bundle branch block.
13.
The Shimmer3 ECG unit can be applied to a variety of applications such as heart function monitoring, atrial fibrillation, premature ventricular contraction, abnormal rhythm detection and alert.
14.
Recent studies have shown that those subjects with an extremely high occurrence ( several thousands a day ) of premature ventricular contractions ( extrasystole ) can develop dilated cardiomyopathy.
15.
The investigators observed no change in the number of premature ventricular contractions of premature atrial contractions per hour during flight compared to preflight or postflight ( Figure 2 ).
16.
In 1890 he discovered premature ventricular contractions and use of the polygraph enabled Mackenzie to make original distinctions between harmless and dangerous types of pulse irregularities ( arrhythmias ).
17.
In individuals with aortic stenosis, after a premature ventricular contraction ( PVC ), the following ventricular contraction will be more forceful, and the pressure generated in the left ventricle will be higher.
18.
In addition, if the individual has premature ventricular contractions ( PVCs ), the change in the carotid pulse intensity in the beat after the PVC can help differentiate HCM from aortic stenosis.
19.
Other irregular rhythms, including frequent premature ventricular contractions ( ventricular extra systoles ) or a distinct signal transduction disorder in the heart ( untreated AV block of more than 300 ms ), may also represent contraindications.
20.
Other possible side effects that can occur are areflexia, asthenia, ataxia, blurred vision, disorientation, dizziness, drowsiness, dysarthria, dysmetria, fainting, hyporeflexia, slurred speech, somnolence, staggering, coma, apnea, shallow breathing, sleepiness, premature ventricular contraction, tachycardia, miosis, and dry mouth.
