Right Sylvian Fissure Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Has Electrocardiographic Consequences

Right sylvian fissure subarachnoid hemorrhage has electrocardiographic consequences.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Abnormal ECG changes are frequently observed in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Recently, evidence has been obtained that right insular cortex mediates sympathetic cardiovascular effects. We therefore assessed the laterality and location of SAH dominance in inducing cardiovascular changes as measured by ECG, blood pressure, and heart rate. METHODS After exc...

Utility of Indocyanine Green Video Angiography for Sylvian Fissure Dissection in Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Patients - Sylvian ICG Technique

Indocyanine green (ICG) emits fluorescence in the far-red domain under light excitation. ICG video angiography (ICG-VA) has been established as a useful method to evaluate blood flow in the operative field. We report the usefulness of ICG-VA for Sylvian fissure dissection in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Subjects comprised 7 patients who underwent ICG-VA before opening the Sylvia...

Enlargement of the Veins in a Sylvian Fissure Mimicking a Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

Electrocardiographic abnormalities in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage.

Subarachnoid hemorrhage is a serious neurological disorder that is often complicated by the occurrence of electrocardiographic abnormalities unexplained by preexisting cardiac conditions. These morphological waveform changes and arrhythmias often are unrecognized or misinterpreted, potentially placing patients at risk for inappropriate management. Many previous investigations were retrospective...

Electrocardiographic abnormalities after nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage.

Electrocardiographic (ECG) abnormalities and rhythm disorders are frequently observed in the acute phase after spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). These abnormalities are benign and transient in most cases; however, in some patients they can take the form of life-threatening arrhythmias such as ventricular flutter/fibrillation and torsade de pointe. Among the ECG abnormalities observed, ...
