Nonsustained ventricular tachycardia.
Nonsustained ventricular tachycardia (NSVT) has been recorded in a wide range of conditions, from apparently healthy individuals to patients with significant heart disease. In the absence of heart disease, the prognostic significance of NSVT is debatable. When detected during exercise, and especially at recovery, NSVT indicates increased cardiovascular mortality within the next decades. In trai...
متن کاملCough-induced nonsustained ventricular tachycardia.
We present herein a case of cough-induced nonsustained ventricular tachycardia for which we found no definitive explanation. It could be an anomaly, but this so far unreported clinical fact is worth noting. Notwithstanding this interesting case, we believe that cough can be recommended as a safe and efficacious technique for overcoming hypotensive cardiac arrhythmias.
متن کاملTrazodone-related exercise-induced nonsustained ventricular tachycardia.
A 79-year-old woman in the course of a syncope evaluation is shown to have a trazodone-related cardiac arrhythmia confirmed by drug rechallenge. This nontricyclic antidepressant should be considered as potentially arrhythmogenic despite its generally favorable cardiovascular profile.
متن کاملNonsustained ventricular tachycardia: where do we stand?
The clinical approach to the patient with nonsustained ventricular tachycardia (NSVT) should always be considered within the particular clinical context in which the arrhythmia occurs. In the documented absence of heart disease, spontaneous NSVT does not carry any adverse prognostic significance. Exercise-induced NSVT may predict increased cardiac mortality. In ischaemic patients with a left ve...
متن کاملNonsustained Ventricular Tachycardia in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
Spirito et all report on the prognostic significance of nonsustained ventricular tachycardia (VT) during Holter monitoring in a highly selected cohort of 151 asymptomatic patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Patient selection excluded patients with moderate to severe symptoms (New York Heart Association functional classes III and IV), those with previous syncopal episodes, and those...
