Electrocardiographic changes in accidental hypothermia.
A 73-year-old woman with depressive disorder was found unconscious at home by her daughter, and was admitted to our hospital. On admission, her body temperature was 28.0. Electrocardiogram (ECG) showed sinus bradycardia and prolonged QT interval (Picture 1 left panel). Prominent J wave was found in leads V3-6 (1). The small notch in leads I, III, AVL and V2 was also indicative of J wave (arrows...
متن کاملElectrocardiographic changes in therapeutic hypothermia
INTRODUCTION During therapeutic hypothermia (TH), electrocardiographic (ECG) abnormalities such as Osborn waves and/or ST-segment elevation have been described. However, the incidence and prognostic value of these ECG changes are uncertain given the small-scale studies that have been carried out to date. The aim of this study is to further evaluate the electrocardiographic changes during TH. ...
متن کامل[Electrocardiographic changes in accidental hypothermia].
Accidental hypothermia was considered to be a rare condition in adults (Rees, 1958). Within the past few years evidence has accumulated which shows that far from being a rare event, accidental hypothermia is a common condition in this country, especially during the winter months (EmslieSmith, 1958; Duguid, Simpson, and Stowers, 1961; Prescott, Peard, and Wallace, 1962; and Brit. med. J., 1963)....
متن کاملElectrocardiographic changes in induced hypothermia in man.
Numerous papers have been published in the past few years describing the changes in the electro-cardiogram of animals submitted to hypothermia (Prec et al. and the pattern is now fairly well established. Information regarding changes in the human cardiogram, however, is scanty and has been derived from various sources. Electrocardiograms of patients suffering from severe exposure to cold have b...
متن کاملElectrocardiographic changes during hypothermia and circulatory occlusion.
An analysis of the electrocardiograms from 25 patients during reduction of body temperature and total occlusion of circulation reveals marked abnormalities in conduction and rhythmicity. Hypothermia was accompanied by slowing of the heart rate, depression of intracardiac conductivity, and by inhibition of the normal centers of impulse formation with resultant atrial arrhythmias. Circulatory occ...
