Spectrum of sinus node dysfunction in two siblings

American Heart Journal, 1976
Two siblings, ages 14 and 23, with various features of sinus node dysfunction have been reported. Sinus bradycardia was the presenting feature in both patients. During the follow-up period both patients developed various types of ectopic rhythms which increased with exercise.

Sinus node dysfunction

The American Journal of Medicine, 1978
Sinus node dysfunction is a disorder of impulse generation and impulse conduction. Previous works have emphasized that the dysfunction occurs not only within the sinus node but also within the escape pacemaker. Adrenergic and cholinergic mechanisms, as well as pulsations and pressure within the sinus node artery, play an important role in normal sinus ...

Sinus node dysfunction: An adverse effect of lacosamide

Epilepsia, 2013
SummaryLacosamide, a recently introduced antiepileptic drug, acts by enhancing the slow inactivation of voltage‐dependent sodium channels. Cardiac conduction disturbances, namely atrial fibrillation and atrioventricular block, have been reported in patients with epilepsy. We report a patient with drug‐resistant focal epilepsy who developed asymptomatic

Sinus Node Dysfunction in Acute Myocardial Infarction

Acta Medica Scandinavica, 1980
ABSTRACT. In a retrospective study of patients admitted for acute myocardial infarction (AMI) during six years, sinus node dysfunction (SND) was detected in 29 (1.04%). Twelve had persistent sinus bradycar‐dia, 11 sinotrial block or sinus arrest and six brady‐tachy syndrome.

Electrophysiologic testing for patients with sinus node dysfunction

Journal of Electrocardiology, 1979
Summary Sinus node dysfunction is characterized by various electrocardiographic abnormalities that may be associated with symptoms. These abnormalities include marked sinus bradycardia, sinus pauses (or arrest), sinoatrial exit block, or inability of the heart to resume sinus rhythm after direct current cardioversion in patients with atrial ...

Patients with Sinus Node Dysfunction or Atrioventricular Blocks

Critical Care Nursing Clinics of North America, 1994
Sinus node dysfunction and AV block constitute the underlying pathology for the majority of patients receiving permanent pacemakers. The predominate arrhythmia is bradycardia, and although rarely life threatening, patients may present with severe symptoms such as syncope or acute heart failure. In these situations, patients are admitted to the critical

Cyclic Sinus Node Dysfunction in a Patient With Hyperthyroidism

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1985
In a 54-year-old woman with hyperthyroidism, episodic sinus node dysfunction (SND) recurred in a cyclic fashion. The SND occurred suddenly during normal sinus rhythm and progressed to marked sinus bradycardia; occasionally, sinus arrest developed with or without ventricular escape beats.

Sinus node dysfunction in children.

Zhonghua Minguo xiao er ke yi xue hui za zhi [Journal]. Zhonghua Minguo xiao er ke yi xue hui, 1992
Seven out of 829 pediatric cardiac patients (0.84%) were found to have sinus node dysfunction (SND) over the past seven years. Of the seven patients, three had structurally normal hearts. One of these three patients had long QT syndrome. In four patients, structural heart disease was noted. In three of these four patients the sinus node dysfunction was
