چکیده

Abstract Propofol infusion syndrome (PRIS) is a rare but potentially lethal side effect of propofol. In most cases it shows various combinations signs such as unexplained metabolic acidosis, rhabdomyolysis, hepatomegaly, renal failure, hypertriglyceridemia, malignant arrhythmia and rapidly progressive cardiac failure. The development coved ST elevation in the right precordial leads electrocardiogram (ECG), similar to that seen type I Brugada may be first sign instability. There no specific treatment for PRIS. Successful management consists an early recognition its followed by prompt propofol termination. We present case 35-year-old male affected mild hypertension. He was found his wife during transitory loss consciousness episode. had resulted positive Sars Cov 2 infection day before symptomatic fever myalgia. An ambulance immediately called patient transferred emergency department suspected out-of-hospital-cardiac arrest. initial one-lead ECG performed physician unremarkable. On arrival he coma state with stable hemodynamics. showed only asymmetric T wave inversion V4-V6 leads. echocardiogram did not show any major alterations. meantime, due worsening respiratory function, orotracheal intubation sedated propofol, midazolam fentanyl. Subsequently, episode atrial fibrillation documented. Amiodarone started reverted sinus rhythm after few hours. following two episodes Torsade de Pointes prolonged QTc (660 ms) occurred. These arrhythmias were treated successfully magnesium sulfate infusion. Blood analysis severe hypokalemia corrected. After hemodynamic stabilization pattern highly resembling 1 Moreover CPK, myoglobin, high sensitivity troponin levels rise, along creatinine, triglycerides markers hepatic injury. been administered continuously eight days, so PRIS primum movens this clinical scenario. interrupted. Thereafter, gradually improved extubated. As soon patient's conditions allowed it, coronary CT MRI performed, To further evaluate case, flecainide challenge test significant change induced. Nonetheless, given both history ventricular arrhythmia, young age subcutaneous defibrillator implanted form secondary prevention.

Bradycardia-dependent ECG changes in Brugada syndrome.

BACKGROUND In patients with Brugada syndrome (BS), ventricular fibrillation (VF) occurs mainly during sleep; therefore, not only vagal activity but also bradycardia dependent changes in ECG may relate to the nighttime occurrence of VF. The present study aimed to examine the difference in bradycardia-dependent changes in the ECG of symptomatic and asymptomatic BS patients. METHODS AND RESULTS ...

Exercise-induced ECG changes in Brugada syndrome.

BACKGROUND Ventricular arrhythmia occurrence during exercise is reported in Brugada syndrome (BrS). Accordingly, experimental studies suggest that BrS-linked SCN5A mutations reduce sodium current more at fast heart rates. Yet, the effects of exercise on the BrS ECG phenotype have not been studied. We aimed to assess ECG responses to exercise in BrS and determine whether these responses are affe...

Syncope and intermittent Brugada ECG pattern.

Brugada syndrome is a rare syndrome, with an estimated prevalence in Europe of 1-5/10 000 population, whose initial clinical presentation can be sudden death. Although it has a characteristic electrocardiographic pattern, this can be intermittent. The authors present the case of a 32-year-old man, with no family history of syncope or sudden death, who went to the emergency department for syncop...

Brugada ECG pattern precipitated by acute pneumonia: a case report

Brugada type 1 ECG pattern is the hallmark for the diagnosis of Brugada syndrome which is a cause of sudden death due to ventricular arrhythmias. We present a case of a previously healthy young man who was admitted with productive cough with greenish phlegm and right-sided chest pain which was subsequently diagnosed as acute pneumonia. A routine ECG was done as part of his evaluation and showed...
