Hyperkalemia-induced complete heart block
Background: Potassium, as an extracellular ion, plays an important role in the electrophysiologic function of the myocardium and any change in extracellular concentration of this ion might have a marked impression upon myocyte electrophysiologic gain. High serum potassium levels are thought to impair pulse conduction in Purkinje fibers and ventricles more than that in the Atrio...
متن کاملSleep apnea and heart failure: Part II: central sleep apnea.
In the first part of this 2-part review, we provided a synopsis of the cardiovascular effects of normal sleep and an overview of the diagnostic, pathophysiological, and therapeutic implications of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in the setting of heart failure (HF). In this second part, we turn our attention to central sleep apnea (CSA), commonly referred to as Cheyne-Stokes respiration. This bre...
متن کاملSleep apnea and heart failure: Part I: obstructive sleep apnea.
Heart failure (HF) affects 5 to 6 million North Americans and is increasing in prevalence.1 Mortality remains high. In Ontario, for example, between 1994 and 1997, approximately 33% of patients diagnosed with HF on first admission to hospital died within 1 year.2 Reductions in mortality demonstrated in randomized clinical trials of pharmacological agents, such as -receptor blockers3 and angiote...

متن کاملHeart failure and sleep apnea.
leep apnea has an association with various cardiovascular diseases and generally, it is classified as either obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) or central sleep apnea (CSA). OSA is a well-known trigger of cardiovascular diseases, whereas CSA is associated with cardiac pathologies that could further worsen prognosis. CSA, rather than OSA, is common in patients with heart failure. However, OSA and CSA...
