Brief Summary
With this project the investigators aim to investigate whether premature ventricular complexes (PVC) have a prognostic significance in persons without structural heart disease. Further the investigators look at the possible connection between PVC-morphology and clinical outcome and investigate whether advanced cardiac imaging-methods may identify subtle signs of heart disease in PVC-patients with normal findings at echocardiography.
