Premature Ventricular Contractions. Description. Premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) are beats which are initiated in the ventricles or lower chambers of the heart, prematurely. As opposed to PACs, when the SA node (the natural pacemaker of the heart) gets interrupted, PVCs do not interrupt the SA node.
