Ventricular premature contractions, Cardiac structure, Cardiac functionAbstract
Ventricular premature contraction (VPC) constitutes a frequently encountered cardiac arrhythmia in clinical settings. This review aims to summarize the effects of VPC burden, origin site, morphology, QRS duration, and coupling interval on cardiac structure and function.
