ADAMS-STOKES SYNDROME WITH TRANSIENT COMPLETE HEART BLOCK OF VAGOVAGAL REFLEX ORIGIN: MECHANISM AND TREATMENT

open access: closed, 1934
Complete auriculoventricular dissociation has been studied extensively by physiologists and clinicians. Through its unique physiologic mechanisms, the development of heart block often is associated with striking clinical manifestations.

Multifocal ventricular extrasytoles with Adams-Stokes syndrome in siblings

American Heart Journal, 1960
Abstract A familial appearance of multifocal ventricular extrasystoles without other signs of heart disease has been mentioned. In two of the three sisters, Adams-Stokes seizures occurred, and one of them died suddenly. The immediate cause of these attacks is believed to be ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation.

Severe adams-stokes syndrome treated with isuprel and an artificial pacemaker

American Heart Journal, 1955
Abstract 1. 1. A case of complete heart block with severe Adams-Stokes syndrome has been presented. 2. 2. A new artificial cardiac pacemaker, used for the first time, has been shown to be an effective, easily applied, safe cardiac stimulator. 3. 3.

Paroxysmal ventricular fibrillation producing Adams-Stokes syndrome; report of case with review of literature.

open access: closedA M A Archives of Internal Medicine, 1952
INCREASING interest in the relative importance of paroxysmal ventricular fibrillation, as opposed to ventricular standstill, as the cause of Adams-Stokes seizures has encouraged us to report another case and to review the present concepts concerning ...

Adams-Stokes syndrome

The American Journal of Medicine, 1955
Abstract 1.1. Four cases of heart block with Stokes-Adams syndrome are presented to illustrate the two different mechanisms which may precipitate the attacks, namely, ventricular asystole and ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation. Emphasis is placed on individualization of treatment, which is adjusted according to the underlying mechanism.

MEDICAL CONTROL OF ADAMS-STOKES SYNDROME

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1958
Recurrent episodes of Adams-Stokes syncope due to ventricular arrest may occur in heart diseases of diverse etiology and pursue an unpredictable course. The clinical aspects of complete atrioventricular block and the Adams-Stokes syndrome have recently been reviewed, 1 and it has been well pointed out that the management of each case must be ...

ON THE ORIGIN AND ESSENCE OF THE MORGAGNI-ADAMS-STOKES SYNDROME

Annals of Internal Medicine, 1952
Excerpt I. INTRODUCTION Morgagni1observed this syndrome and described it accurately in 1765. Adams2observed it in 1827 in a 68 year old patient. Stokes3mentioned five cases in 1846.

Use of the permanent subcutaneous transvenous pacemaker in Adams-Stokes syndrome

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1966
Abstract The technic and results of long term endocardial pacing with a subcutaneous power supply are discussed. Among 15 patients so treated during a 10 month period, 11 patients were discharged from the hospital with satisfactorily functioning transvenous units. One patient died suddenly one month after discharge. The other 10 have done well.

The treatment of Adams-Stokes syndrome due to auriculoventricular block

American Heart Journal, 1929
Abstract 1. A. The pathogenesis of Adams-Stokes syndrome due to auriculoventricular block is described. 2. B. The primary aim and the rationale appertaining to any therapeutic measure is discussed. These are shown to be an increase in the ventricular rate, brought about in one or more of the following ways: (1) the resolution of the lesion ...
