Unique ID: D005117
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D005117
Annotation: general or unspecified: atrial = ATRIAL PREMATURE COMPLEXES; ventricular = VENTRICULAR PREMATURE COMPLEXES
Scope Note: A group of cardiac arrhythmias in which the cardiac contractions are not initiated at the SINOATRIAL NODE. They include both atrial and ventricular premature beats, and are also known as extra or ectopic heartbeats. Their frequency is increased in heart diseases.
