Overview
Many cases of premature ventricular contraction have no definite cause, it may be the result of various other problems. If PVC patients present with symptoms, a generalized approach is done to find the precipitating factors.
Laboratory Findings
The following investigations are done to patients with symptoms :
- Renal function and electrolytes
- Complete blood count
- ABG : To rule out hypercapnia and hypoxia.
- Thyroid-stimulating hormone : To rule out hyperthyroidism and of relevance if amiodarone is administered for treatment.
2017 AHA/ACC/HRS Guideline for Management of Patients with Ventricular Arrhythmias and the Prevention of Sudden Cardiac Death (DO NOT EDIT)[1]
Recommendation for Biomarkers
| Class IIa |
| 1. In patients with structural heart disease, measurement of natriuretic peptides (BNP or N-terminal pro-BNP) can be useful by adding prognostic information to standard risk factors for predicting SCD or SCA (Level of Evidence: B-NR).[2][3][4]
