Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome. Circus movement tachycardia dependent on procainamide.
A patient with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome was disabled by rapid ventricular rates during atrial arrhythmia and by periods of asystole. Circus tachycardia was induced by atrial stimulation only after the administration of procainamide. Nevertheless, treatment with this drug controlled the ventricular rate and spontaneous circus tachycardia did not occur.

This paper reports a patient with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome who presented with a tachycardia showing an unusual QRS morphology closely resembling that of a ventricular tachycardia. On reversal to a normal rhythm the electrocardiogram showed changes of a type A preexcitation, with subsequent conversion to a type B pattern. This phenomenon was observed on two separate occasions. Such convers...

متن کامل[Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome].
Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome is a cardiac conduction disorder that presents with potentially life-threatening consequences. Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome-induced dysrhythmias account for 20% of all supraventricular tachycardias that occur in the general population. Clinical presentations range from no symptoms to a sudden cardiac arrest. The risk of sudden death is always present with ...
متن کامل[Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome].
WPW syndrome is a rare congenital heart disease due to an accessory pathway between the atrium and the ventricle. Its ECG pattern is characterized by a short PR interval, a delta wave, a wide QRS complex and an abnormal ventricular repolarisation. Patients are usually asymptomatic, or have frequent paroxysmal episodes of tachycardia. These tachycardias are supraventricular tachycardias related ...
