Torsade de pointes during an oral surgery caused by a combination of herbal medicine-induced pseudoaldosteronism and trigeminocardiac reflex. [PDF]
Licorice can cause pseudoaldosteronism and QT prolongation as its side effect. Trigeminal nerve stimulation, including surgical intervention involving the face, can cause transient bradycardia, known as the trigeminocardiac reflex.

Prolonged asystole induced by trigeminocardiac reflex accompanied with abnormal heart rate variability during percutaneous balloon compression: a case report. [PDF]
Trigeminocardiac reflex (TCR) can result in bradycardia and even cardiac arrest, and is reversible with elimination of the stimulus. Here, we report the case of a 68-year-old man who experienced cardiac arrest during percutaneous balloon compression for ...

A case report: A patient rescued by VA-ECMO after cardiac arrest triggered by trigeminocardiac reflex after nasal surgery. [PDF]
Rationale: Cardiac arrest (CA) caused by trigeminocardiac reflex (TCR) after endoscopic nasal surgery is rare. Hence, when a patient suffers from TCR induced CA in the recovery room, most doctors may not be able to find the cause in a short time, and ...

Transient cardiac arrest due to trigeminocardiac reflex during aneurysm clipping: illustrative case. [PDF]
BACKGROUND Trigeminocardiac reflex (TCR) is a well-known phenomenon that causes bradycardia, hypotension, and cardiac arrest through mechanical stimulation of the trigeminal nerve distribution.

Definition and Diagnosis of the Trigeminocardiac Reflex: A Grounded Theory Approach for an Update [PDF]
BackgroundThe trigeminocardiac reflex (TCR) is defined as sudden onset of parasympathetic dysrhythmias including hemodynamic irregularities, apnea, and gastric hypermotility during stimulation of sensory branches of the trigeminal nerve.

Repeated ventricular bigeminy by trigeminocardiac reflex despite atropine administration during superficial upper lip surgery: A case report. [PDF]
BACKGROUND The trigeminocardiac reflex (TCR) is usually caused by an increased parasympathetic tone when pressure or traction is applied to the surrounding tissue of the trigeminal nerve.

Delayed trigeminocardiac reflex after maxillofacial surgery: case report [PDF]
Background: Trigeminocardiac reflex is a physiological phenomenon that may occur in head and neck surgery, and is usually benign. However, it may present with exaggerated responses with severe morbidity.

Atypical trigeminocardiac reflex during intranasal dexmedetomidine sedation of a 6-month-old premature baby. [PDF]
The trigeminocardiac reflex (TCR) is an established brainstem reflex leading to parasympathetic dysrhythmias—including haemodynamic irregularities, apnoea and gastric hypermotility—during stimulation of any sensory branches of the trigeminal nerve.

The Trigeminocardiac Reflex? Severe Bradycardia Secondary to Facial Trauma: A Case Report [PDF]
Introduction: The trigeminocardiac reflex (TCR), a physiologic response to irritation of the branches of the trigeminal nerve, was first described in humans in 1870.

Territorial and Extraterritorial Trigeminocardiac Reflex: A Review for the Neurosurgeon and a Type IV Reflex Vignette [PDF]
The trigeminocardiac reflex (TCR) is a complex and, sometimes, fatal event triggered by overstimulation of the trigeminal nerve (TN) and its territorial and spinal cord branches.
