Ventricular Arrhythmias in Athletes: Most Often a Right Ventricular Origin
Athletic performance tests the limits of the human body and mind. Awe-inspiring achievements is what makes sports so fascinating. It is well appreciated however that top-level sports may sometimes overtax the body, and can lead to injuries, most notably of musculo-skeletal nature. This paper defends the thesis that the heart can also develop sports injuries at the ventricular level. We will ela...
متن کاملNoninvasive Cardiac Screening in Young Athletes With Ventricular Arrhythmias
The aim of this study was to analyze using noninvasive cardiac examinations a series of young athletes discovered to have ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) during the preparticipation screening program for competitive sports. One hundred forty-five athletes (mean age 17 ± 5 years) were evaluated. The study protocol included electrocardiography (ECG), exercise testing, 2-dimensional and Doppler echo...
متن کامل[Left ventricular dysfunction induced by monomorphic ventricular arrhythmias: large improvement in ventricular function after radiofrequency ablation of the arrhythmic source].
Left ventricular systolic dysfunction related to ventricular arrhythmias is a relatively poorly understood entity. To increase our knowledge base, we describe 5 patients in whom the link between ventricular dysfunction and ventricular arrhythmia was unequivocally established. All patients had repetitive monomorphic ventricular arrhythmias and left ventricular systolic dysfunction (ejection frac...
متن کاملMonomorphic Ventricular Tachycardia
An 83-year-old male with known coronary artery disease presented to our emergency department (ED) with a complaint of palpitations and associated minor chest discomfort while on his way to play a round of golf. Vital signs were significant for a blood pressure at 122/76 mmHg, heart rate at 180 beats per minute, respiration rate at 20 breaths per minute, temperature at 37oC, and SpO2 at 98% on r...
متن کاملAnalysis of the intraventricular electrogram for differentiation of distinct monomorphic ventricular arrhythmias.
This study investigated the effectiveness of correlation waveform analysis for identifying different ventricular electrogram morphologies of multiple VTs in the same patient. Patients with implantable antitachycardia devices are commonly subject to the occurrence of more than one distinct monomorphic VT. Each of these VTs may have unique therapeutic alternatives for termination. VTs with identi...
