This is a purely observational project and the objectives are to record and analyze the local potentials at the site of Premature Ventricular Contraction (VPC) focus through the Rhythmia system, ti determine the short and long-term success of the procedure and compare it to the existing literature about standard procedures, to highlight the advantages of the system compared to conventional mapping and to characterize optimal pace map or activation map as achieved by the Rhythmia system.
This is a purely observational study. No special methodology choice, no comparison.
The study want to find the determination of precise location of the focus and mechanisms involved constitutes a challenge for conventional electrophysiology, even with tridimensional systems, because of the time needed for accurate delineation of the location (due to the sometimes unfrequent Ventricular Premature Beats (VPB)) and to the insufficient mapping density or inadequate signal characteristics. The Rhythmia system could allow better determination of the focus location in relation to the anatomical structures, especially with unfrequent VPB, because of the available high density mapping due to the number of closed high-resolution electrodes located on the Orion catheter. Better delineation of the true focus origin and of the mechanisms involved (automaticity vs re-entry) may be of useful help for better understanding and efficient therapy.

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Determining the surface of optimal pace map or activation map | To evaluate the area of isochronal earliest activation of PVC (Premature Ventricular Contraction), based on unipolar or bipolar activation : correlations will be made with the suspected endocardial or epicardial/intra-mural location of the focus. This technic may reduce the area of perfect pace-mapping and possibly more accurately locate the focus. | One year |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Record the local potentials at the site of PVC focus through the Rhythmia system | Pacing from any electrode being in close contact with the endocardial surface and comparing the paced QRS to the spontaneous VPC (automatic calculation available on Bard ElectroPhysiology (EP) system). Describe and analyze the local signals recorded from the Orion catheter at the site of the PVC focus. by looking for prepotentials as a surrogate of local abnormal automaticity, for local discrete scar and local late potentials favouring local reentry as a cause for PVC, determining the local activation characteristics of VPC (surface of local breakthrough, velocity and direction of activation. |

Patients will be recruited by consultations, hospitalisations or referral by external doctors, in the department of Cardiology.
This is a purely observational study. No power calculation will be needed due to the lack of comparisons.
