Postural change-dependent T-wave oversensing resulting in the administration of inappropriate shocks

Journal of Arrhythmia, 2012
A 68-year-old man with dilated cardiomyopathy (left ventricular ejection fraction, 15%) and nonsustained ventricular tachycardia received an implantable cardioverter defibrillator. Even though his cardiac status had greatly improved 2 years later after β-

Hemodynamic Consequences and Clinical Outcomes With Intravenous Lidocaine Infusion in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Intravenous lidocaine is frequently used for refractory ventricular arrhythmia (VA). Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common comorbidity in VA patients. Lidocaine poses theoretical risks of hemodynamic compromise and pro‐arrhythmia, including AF with rapid ventricular rates (RVR).

Novel Observations on the Precursor Arrhythmias of Ventricular Fibrillation in the Ambulatory Setting

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Ventricular fibrillation (VF) is a lethal arrhythmia documented on outpatient telemetry monitoring. Ambulatory ECG in arrhythmic sudden death has shown VF as the terminal arrhythmia in about 80% of cases. Studies of VF in the ambulatory setting are sparse but suggest VF is commonly preceded by monomorphic ventricular tachycardia ...

Atrioventricular Node Slow‐Pathway Ablation Reduces Atrial Fibrillation Inducibility: A Neuronal Mechanism

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2016
BackgroundRadiofrequency ablation (RFA) for atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia appears to reduce atrial tachycardia, which might relate to parasympathetic denervation at cardiac ganglionated plexuses.

Influence of central venous pressure upon sinus node responses to arterial baroreflex stimulation in man [PDF]

Measurements were made of sinus node responses to arterial baroreceptor stimulation with phenylephrine injection or neck suction, before and during changes of central venous pressure provoked by lower body negative pressure or leg and lower truck ...

Andersen-Tawil Syndrome [PDF]

, 2006
Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) is a rare condition consisting of ventricular arrhythmias, periodic paralysis, and dysmorphic features. In 2001, mutations in KCNJ2, which encodes the α subunit of the potassium channel Kir2.1, were identified in patients ...

Impact of Emergent Physician Notifications from Mobile Cardiac Outpatient Telemetry on Patient Outcomes (The EP‐COT Trial)

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Mobile ambulatory cardiac telemetry (MCOT) use has increased over time; however, data on the prevalence and the impact of emergent arrhythmia notifications with MCOT remains unclear. We sought to determine the prevalence and clinical impact of emergent arrhythmia events in patients undergoing MCOT monitoring.

Pre‐anaesthetic risk assessment and management of dogs with myxomatous mitral valve disease: a spectrum of care narrative review

Journal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
Myxomatous mitral valve disease, an acquired valvular degeneration, is the most common cardiac disorder in dogs, affecting approximately 10% of dogs in primary care veterinary practice. Dogs with myxomatous mitral valve disease frequently require anaesthesia for routine procedures.

Arrhythmia Diagnosis Following an ICD Shock.

Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2001
Stored electrograms show atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular rates (top panel). Sufficient numbers of RR intervals meet the tachycardia detection criteria initiating a train of anti-tachycardia pacing by the ICD (after the 8th electrogram in the ...

Rate-Control or Rhythm-Contol: Where do we stand? [PDF]

, 2005
Atrial fibrillation is the most common sustained rhythm disturbance and its prevalence is increasing worldwide due to the progressive aging of the population.
