Common causes includes:
Stress, More that usual comsuption of coffee, tobacco, alcohol, medicines specially drugs used of asthma treatment, electrolyte derangement, coronary artery disease.
Prognosis, outcome is usually good.
Further tests include HOLTER Monitoring to see the frequency of VPC whole day.
