12-lead electrocardiogram showing 3 premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) with irregular coupling intervals with the preceding QRS complexes and intervals between the PVCs with a common denominator (1880 ms). Asterisk Illustrates expected timing of discharge of the ectopic ventricular focus which can not be propagated to the surrounding tissue because this tissue is refractory due to depolarisation by the intrinsic rhythm
