Approximate Synonyms
  • Atrial premature beats
  • Premature atrial contraction
  • Supraventricular premature beats
Clinical Information
  • A type of cardiac arrhythmia with premature atrial contractions or beats caused by signals originating from ectopic atrial sites. The ectopic signals may or may not conduct to the heart ventricles. Atrial premature complexes are characterized by premature p waves on ecg which are different in configuration from the p waves generated by the normal pacemaker complex in the sinoatrial node.
  • Ectopic impulses originating in the atria.
ICD-10-CM I49.1 is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group(s) (MS-DRG v40.0):
  • 308 Cardiac arrhythmia and conduction disorders with mcc
  • 309 Cardiac arrhythmia and conduction disorders with cc
  • 310 Cardiac arrhythmia and conduction disorders without cc/mcc
