Reversion of ventricular tachycardia by pacemaker stimulation.
Reversion of ventricular tachycardia to either sinus rhythm or atrialfibrillation has been achieved in a group ofpatients by rapid ventricular pacing. The standard technique involved pacing at a rate slightly in excess of the existing tachycardia until ventricular capture was achieved. Cessation ofpacing after afew seconds was usuallyfollowed by a supraventricular rhythm, though pacing at a low...
متن کاملVerapamil induced premature ventricular beats before reversion of supraventricular tachycardia.
The occurrence in 6 patients of premature ventricular beats before reversion to sinus rhythm, after the intravenous administration ofverapamil-for the treatment of supraventricular tachycardia, is reported. Four patients had pre-excitation syndromes (Wolff-Parkinson-White in I and Lown-Ganong-Levine in 3) and one patient had bradycardia-tachycardia syndrome. In the remaining patient, at previou...
متن کاملRapidly Recurring Supraventricular Tachycardia
or digitalis and quinidine, prevented tachyeardia in five patients and slowed it in one. Our cases suggest the following: (1) Recurrent supraventricular tachycardia in patients without the WPW syndrome may frequently be caused by a reciprocal mechanism. (2) The diagnosis of reciprocating tachycardia should be suspected when (a) the tachycardia recurs within minutes of its termination, (b) the o...
متن کاملSyncope and supraventricular tachycardia.
A41-year-old man was referred for electrophysiological evaluation after recurrent syncope that occurred frequently during vigorous exercise. The patient had a complete, normal cardiological work up, including a resting ECG, an exercise stress test, and an echocardiogram. He reported that just before loss of consciousness, his heart was beating very fast. An electrophysiological study was perfor...
متن کاملDermatomyositis and supraventricular tachycardia
BACKGROUND Dermatomyositis is an idiopathic inflammatory myopathy, often associated with an underlying malignancy. Its prevalence rate is approximately one per 100,000 in the general population, and is even rarer without evidence of a cancer. Dermatomyositis rarely involves myocardial muscle fibers, but has shown to be associated with cardiac arrhythmias. CASE PRESENTATION We present a case o...
