Repolarization is the electro-phsyiological phenomonon of specialized heart cells that contracts the heart chambers. It is not a cause to worry, as the condition is not uncommon and sometimes it can be seen or felt as a skipped beat, but it really is an early heartbeat (repolarization).
PVC's can be a source of early repolariztions and usually not considered a serious event.
