Effectiveness of medical therapy for treatment of idiopathic frequent premature ventricular complexes

The relative effectiveness of medical therapy compared with a conservative approach of monitoring in patients with idiopathic frequent premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) is uncertain. We evaluated the effectiveness of medical versus conservative therapy for frequent PVCs.
