New insights into fetal atrioventricular block using fetal magnetocardiography.
outine fetal arrhythmia assessment typically involves the se of echocardiographic modalities that demonstrate mehanical events from which electrophysiological events are nferred (1). While M-mode and Doppler-based techniques ave been used successfully to diagnose third-degree atrioentricular block (AVB), second-degree AVB, and, more ecently, first-degree AVB, our evaluation has been limited o a...
متن کاملThe Effect of Opium Addiction on Cardiac Arrhythmia after Acute Myocardial Infarction
Background & Aims: This study was carried out to assess the effect of opium addiction on the incidence of different types of arrhythmias after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods: The study population consisted of 200 patients with first AMI admitted within 6 hours of the onset of chest pain to the coronary care units (CCU) of two hospitals affiliated to Kerman University of Medical Scie...
متن کاملPrenatal Diagnosis of Atrioventricular Block and QT Interval Prolongation by Fetal Magnetocardiography in a Fetus with Trisomy 18 and SCN5A R1193Q Variant
We report a case of fetal trisomy 18 with SCN5A R1193Q variant that presented with sinus bradycardia, 2 : 1 atrioventricular block (AVB), and QT interval prolongation. These complex arrhythmias were diagnosed by fetal magnetocardiography combined with ultrasound findings. Advanced AVB and ventricular arrhythmias were confirmed after birth. Genetic testing of the baby revealed a SCN5A R1193Q var...
متن کاملIsolated Late Activation Detected by Magnetocardiography Predicts Future Lethal Ventricular Arrhythmic Events in Patients With Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy.
BACKGROUND Risk stratification of ventricular arrhythmias is vital to the optimal management in patients with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC). We hypothesized that 64-channel magnetocardiography (MCG) would be useful to detect isolated late activation (ILA) by overcoming the limitations of conventional noninvasive predictors of ventricular tachyarrhythmias, including epsi...
متن کاملGiant fetal magnetocardiogram P waves in congenital atrioventricular block: a marker of cardiovascular compensation?
BACKGROUND Cardiogram signal amplitude is a key index of hypertrophy but has not been investigated extensively in utero. In this study, magnetocardiography was used to assess P and QRS amplitude in normal subjects and subjects with fetal arrhythmia. METHODS AND RESULTS The study cohort consisted of 68 normal fetuses and 25 with various arrhythmias: 9 reentrant supraventricular tachycardia (SV...
