Eccentric hypertrophy in an animal model of mid- and long-term premature ventricular contraction–induced cardiomyopathy

Background: Tachycardia and heart rate irregularity are proposed triggers of premature ventricular contraction–induced cardiomyopathy (PVC-cardiomyopathy). Bigeminal premature atrial and ventricular contractions (PACs and PVCs) increase heart rate and result in rhythm irregularities but differ in th...
