Types and Outcomes of Arrhythmias in a Cardiac Care Unit in Western Kenya: A Prospective Study
Global Heart, 2023 Background: Sustained arrhythmias are frequently encountered in cardiac care units (CCU), but their types and outcomes in Africa are unknown. Studies from high-income countries suggest arrhythmias are associated with worse outcomes.

Arrhythmia induction using isoproterenol or epinephrine during electrophysiology study for supraventricular tachycardia [PDF]
, 2018 Background Electrophysiology study (EPS) is an important part of the diagnosis and workup for supraventricular tachycardia (SVT). Provocative medications are used to induce arrhythmias, when they are not inducible at baseline. The most common medication

Prognostic Implications of Supraventricular Arrhythmias [PDF]
The American Journal of Cardiology, 2021 The aim of this study was to establish the prevalence and prognostic implication of progressive supraventricular arrhythmias from frequent supraventricular ectopic complexes, isolated, in bi- or trigeminy, to supraventricular tachycardias with different characteristics. In the STROKESTOP I mass-screening study for atrial fibrillation (AF) in 75- and 76-

Electrocardiographic patch devices and contemporary wireless cardiac monitoring. [PDF]
, 2015 Cardiac electrophysiologic derangements often coexist with disorders of the circulatory system. Capturing and diagnosing arrhythmias and conduction system disease may lead to a change in diagnosis, clinical management and patient outcomes.
