With ventricular premature complexes, they represent one of the most common causes of irregular pulse. They are more apt to occur if there is atrial or conduction system disease such as left atrial enlargement in mitral stenosis. In community prospective studies, atrial premature complexes are not related to sudden death, as are ventricular premature beats in coronary disease. 427.61 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 427.61 contains 15 index entries View the ICD-9-CM Volume 1 427.* hierarchy Alternate Terminology Atrial premature beats, contractions, or systoles  Index entries containing 427.61: Beats premature (nodal) 427.60 atrial 427.61 auricular 427.61 supraventricular 427.61 Contraction, contracture, contracted premature atrial 427.61 auricular 427.61 auriculoventricular 427.61 supraventricular 427.61 Ectopic, ectopia (congenital) 759.89 auricular beats 427.61 Extrasystole 427.60 atrial 427.61 Premature - see also condition beats (nodal) 427.60 atrial 427.61 auricular 427.61 supraventricular 427.61 contractions 427.60 atrial 427.61 auricular 427.61 auriculoventricular 427.61
