Syncope during standby cardiac pacing.
An electric pacemaker may, under certain circumstances, compete with an intrinsic cardiac rhythm and share control of the heart. Should an electric stimulus fall in the vulnerable phase of the ventricular cycle, potentially dangerous arrhythmias may be provoked (Sowton, 1965; Siddons and Sowton, 1967; Bilitch, Cosby, and Cafferky, 1967). " Ventricular-programmed " or " demand " pacemakers, whic...

متن کاملPallid syncope successfully treated by permanent cardiac pacing
The aims of this study are to raise awareness among paediatricians, neurologists and paediatric neurologists of the potential benefits of permanent cardiac pacing in patients who have severe and disabling reflex anoxic seizures (RAS) associated with reflex asystole, sometimes called ‘pallid syncope’. Up to now pacing was generally held not to be required for RAS as it is self-limiting and safe....
متن کاملPacing for Vasovagal Syncope
Introduction Vasovagal syncope is a common condition, usually associated with a benign prognosis. Most sufferers experience only occasional symptoms, and can be treated with reassurance and lifestyle advice. However, a minority of patients are debilitated by frequent fainting that can infringe on daily living, or even mimic sudden death. This has been termed "malignant" vasovagal syncope becaus...
متن کاملHeart failure during cardiac pacing.
BACKGROUND Right ventricular apical (RVA) pacing creates abnormal left ventricular contraction, hypertrophy, and reduced pump function. The adverse effects of ventricular desynchronization may explain the association of RVA pacing with an increased risk of heart failure hospitalization (HFH) in clinical trials. METHODS AND RESULTS Baseline and postimplantation variables were used to predict H...
