Joining us today to discuss PVC Localization and Management is William G. Stevenson, M.D., professor of medicine at Vanderbilt University Medical School, in Nashville Tennessee.
Specific topics discussed:
• What are some of the initial concerns of Premature Ventricular Complexes?
• How do you classify the alarming features you mentioned, what should we be thinking about?
• How are prolonged ECG recordings evaluated?
• How do you make the call to send the patient to the EP Lab or for an Ablation?
• Is there ever a case of a young person with the probability of channelopathy or ion disorder?
• What is your approach to working to localize these pvs’s on the ECG?
• Is there an area that we should be looking for with more alarming pvc’s and they are coming from?
• Using your approach and from the 12-lead EKG, how do you translate those to mapping during a electrophysiology test?
