The occurrence of signs of cardiotoxicity in particular the extra-ventricular sistoles (EVS), is the object and reasons of this study, whose objectives were comparing the occurrence of extra-ventricular systole in the immediate pre and post per immediate during treatment with anthracycline and establish a correlation between time of treatment and the occurrence of ESV. This is an uncontrolled clinical trial, before, during and after a quantitative treatment. The sample of convenience consisted of 30 patients undergoing treatment with doxorubicin chemotherapy at the clinic of the university hospital (UH). It examined the number of EVS, in pre, and post per infusion of patients who underwent anthracycline infusion of the chemotherapy outpatient clinic of University Hospital.
