Abstract: |
The article focuses on management of patients with ventricular arrhythmias. Ventricular arrhythmias (VA) take many forms. Depending upon type and clinical situation, they have different immediate and late implications. Cosmetic (benign), symptomatic, and prognostically significant VA can be recognized. Cosmetic VA should be positively identified and thereafter ignored. Dynamic electrocardiography, although responsible for exposing cosmetic VA, is helpful in determining the benign status of these events. |
