A few minutes after arrival, he complained of palpitations followed by a sudden loss of consciousness. An ECG showed a polymorphic ventricular tachycardia degenerating into ventricular fibrillation (Figure 1). Because of recurrent major ventricular arrhythmias, resuscitati...
متن کاملVentricular arrhythmias: from the electrophysiology laboratory to clinical practice. Part I: malignant ventricular arrhythmias.
V entricular arrhythmias represent a common problem for the clinical cardiologist in everyday practice. Apart from being commonly asymptomatic, they may manifest with a variety of clinical symptoms, such as palpitations, “strong” precordial beats, “missing” heart beats, chest pounding, or occasionally episodes of long-lasting tachycardia accompanied with dyspnoea, chest discomfort, hypotension ...
متن کاملEffects of homoeopathic ultrahigh dilutions of Aconitum napellus on Baker's yeast-induced fever in rabbits.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effects of homoeopathic ultrahigh dilutions of Aconitum napellus in Baker's yeast-induced fever in rabbits. METHODS Rabbits were divided into 4 groups and each group contained 6 rabbits. Baker's yeast suspension (20%) was injected subcutaneously. After fever induction, paracetamol and homoeopathic ultrahigh dilutions (A. napellus 200c and 1 000c) were given orally. R...
متن کاملECG Parameters for Malignant Ventricular Arrhythmias: A Comprehensive Review
Many studies showed electrocardiogram (ECG) parameters are useful for predicting fatal ventricular arrhythmias (VAs). However, the studies have several shortcomings. Firstly, all studies lack of effective way to present behavior of various ECG parameters prior to the occurrence of the VAs. Secondly, they also lack of discussion on how to consider the parameters as abnormal. Thirdly, the reports...
متن کامل[Malignant ventricular arrhythmias as the initial manifestation of hyperthyroidism].
Ventricular arrhythmia is normally secondary to organic heart disease or ion disorders. On rare occasions, it may also be caused by extracardiac diseases, such as hyperthyroidism. We describe a 46-year-old woman who consulted for dyspnea, cough, and edema that had lasted three weeks. She reported no other symptoms and had not lost weight.
