متن کاملArrhythmias from fiberoptic bronchoscopy.
The electrocardiogram was monitored in 51 patients during fiberoptic bronchoscopic procedures and was compared to recordings made before premedication. Sixteen of the patients had heart disease. During the bronchoscopic procedure, the heart rate increased by 154 "/- 5 percent (+/- SE).
