Abstract Abnormalities in the heart's rhythm, known as arrhythmias, pose a significant threat to global health, often leading to severe cardiac conditions and sudden cardiac deaths. Therefore, early and accurate detection of arrhythmias is crucial for timely intervention and potentially life‐saving treatment.

Serious outcomes among emergency department patients with presyncope: A systematic review
Abstract Background Syncope is transient loss of consciousness, and in presyncope, patients experience same prodromal symptoms without losing consciousness. While studies have extensively reported the risk of serious outcome among emergency department (ED) syncope, the outcome for patients with presyncope and their management are not well studied.

Rare but relevant: Hydrocarbons and sudden sniffing syndrome
Abstract Inhaled hydrocarbon‐associated sudden collapse (IHASC), often referred to as ‘sudden sniffing death syndrome’ is a critical and often fatal event linked to the inhalation of volatile hydrocarbons, primarily occurring in adolescents and young adults. This syndrome manifests as sudden cardiac and/or respiratory arrest, typically occurring during

Management of xylazine toxicity, overdose, dependence, and withdrawal: A systematic review
Abstract Background and Objectives Xylazine, an alpha‐2‐adrenergic agonist, has been increasingly implicated in substance use and overdose crises. However, little is known about its effects on humans. With the growing public health crisis surrounding xylazine, it has become important to recognize and promptly manage symptoms of xylazine toxicity ...
