Archives of Disease in Childhood, 51, 100. Sick sinus syndrome in children. The ages of 6 male patients with the sick sinus syndrome ranged from 10-15 years when their symptoms began. At rest all had a heart rate of 60/min or less. Two had syncopal attacks which threatened life; 1 had only attacks of dizziness; the other 3 had no syncopal attacks but had recurrent attacks of supraventricular tachycardia ('brady-tachycardia syndrome') which were more resistant to drug therapy than is usual in childhood. They were not controlled or suppressed by digoxin when it was given. Substernal pain occurred in 2 patients who had syncope. In all patients the heart rate remained inappropriately slow after exercise and atropine. Cardiac pacemakers were used in the 2 patients with life-threatening syncope. Any patient who has dizziness or syncopal attacks and an inappropriately slow heart rate should have electrocardiograms recorded at rest and after excerise to record the heart rate and to look for abnormal P-waves. Dysfunction of the sinoatrial node has been sudden death in childhood than has been previously copyright. increasingly recognized over the past few years. recognized.

BACKGROUND Accurate identification of patients at increased risk for sustained ventricular arrhythmias is critical to prevent sudden cardiac death. T-wave alternans is a heart rate dependent measure of repolarization that correlates with arrhythmia vulnerability in animal and human studies. Signal-averaged electrocardiography and EPS are more established tests used for risk stratification. METHODS This was a prospective, multicenter trial of 313 patients in sinus rhythm who were undergoing electrophysiologic study. T-wave alternans, assessed with bicycle ergometry, and SAECG were measured before EPS.

  • Cardiology- the ABC's of the PQRST
    Cardiology- the ABC’s of the PQRST Heather Carter LVT, VTS (Anesthesia & Analgesia) Introduction Understanding cardiology can provide the anesthetist with the ability to trouble shoot and treat various problems. Knowing when and how to treat a bradycardia versus a tachycardia can ensure a smooth anesthetic event. Origin of the Heartbeat http://i.pinimg.com/736x/9b/70/59/9b7059c20a452fc655a26e9e3e4b40ad.jpg Understanding the origin of the heartbeat can help the anesthetist know when and how to identify a potential problem. An ECG complex consists of a PQRST complex. The sinoatrial node (SA) is the pacemaker of the heart and produces the P wave. The QRS wave is produced by the atrioventricular node (AV). The P wave in an ECG complex indicates atrial depolarization. The QRS is responsible for ventricular depolarization and the T wave is ventricular repolarization. If a P wave is absent there is a lack of atrial depolarization. This is also known as atrial standstill. P waves that are combined in the QRS complexes are indicative of ventricular tachycardia or a junctional tachycardia. Present P waves that are without a QRS are indicative of an atrial depolarization that has not been conducted through the AV node. A QRS complex without a P wave demonstrate premature or escape beats. Essentials Arrhythmias can be identified with ease if several essentials are in place. ECG leads should be placed correctly: White- Right forelimb Black- Left forelimb Green- Right hind limb Red- Left hind limb Determining the paper speed (25mm/sec vs 50mm/sec) will also help the anesthetist determine if a bradycardia or tachycardia is present.

Quillen Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Mountain www.medicinearticle.com Home, Tennessee (TN), USA Received: 14-06-2020 Accepted: 18-07-2020 Abstract Electrocardiographic features of a short PR interval, a delta wave, and a wide QRS complex constitutes a Wolff- Parkinson-White (WPW) pattern. Asymptomatic electrocardiographic findings are defined as a WPW pattern. Symptomatic patients with these electrocardiographic features have WPW syndrome. WPW syndrome may predispose to arrhythmias such as paroxysmal atrial tachycardia, atrial fibrillation, ventricular tachycardia. Patient’s with WPW syndrome at risk for sudden cardiac death. It is important to recognize the common electrocardiographic characteristics of WPW pattern. The advent of electrophysiological studies (EPS) and radiofrequency ablation has revolutionized the management of WPW syndrome. Keywords: Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome, Wolff-Parkinson-White Pattern, Pre-excitation, Accessory pathway. INTRODUCTION Wolff, Parkinson, and White described a patient series in the year 1930 who suffered from paroxysms of tachycardia with classic electrocardiographic findings which has been described as WPW pattern [1]. It is a congenital abnormality in the cardiac conduction system. WPW pattern is a ventricular pre-excitation entity wherein an accessory bypass tract known as the bundle of Kent serves as the connection between the atrial to the ventricular myocardium bypassing the atrioventricular (AV) node [2,3].

Introduction: An estimated 3% of the United States population suffers from recurrent convulsive episodes that are most often attributed to primary epileptic seizures.1 However, recent studies have estimated about 20%-30% of such episodes are associated with occult cardiac etiology,2 which carry one-year mortality rates of up to 30%.3 Cardiogenic cerebral hypoxia has been associated with a wide variety of neurologic disturbances, including dizzy spells, headache, syncope, focal motor deficit, generalized tonic-clonic seizure, confusion, dementia, and psychosis.4 Convulsive activity has tentatively been ascribed to the ensuing activation of the medullary reticular formation.5,6 This scenario is based on a patient that presented to University of California Irvine Medical Center Emergency

  • Sinus Bradycardia

Shaw From the Cardiac Department, Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital, Exeter, Devon This paper presents thefeatures of 46 patients with unexplained bradycardia. Patients were ad- mitted to the study if their resting atrial rate was below 56 a minute on two consecutive occasions. Previous electrocardiograms and the response to exercise, atropine, and isoprenaline were studied. The ages of thepatients variedfrom I3 to 88years. Only 8 had a past history ofcardiovascular disease other than bradycardia, but 36 hJd syncopal or dizzy attacks. Of the 46 patients, 35 had another arrhythmia in addition to bradycardia; at some stage, i6 had sinus arrest, i.5 hadjunc- tional rhythm, 12 had fast atrial arrhythmia, I6 had frequent extrasystoles, and 6 had atrio- ventricular block. None had the classical features of sinoatrial block. Arrhythmias were often produced by exercise, atropine, or isoprenaline. Drug treatment was rarely satisfactory, but only i patient needed a permanent pacemaker. It is suggested that the majority of the patients were suffering from a pathological form of sinus bradycardia. The aetiology remains unproven, but the most likely explanation is a loss of the inherent rhythmicity of the sinoatrial node due to a primary degenerative disease. The descriptive title of 'the lazy sinus syndrome' is suggested. copyright.
