This case report refers to a victim of intraoperative cardiac arrest, who restored spontaneous circulation despite of cessation of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). The victim, a 53-year-old man, was undergoing a surgical investigation and rehabilitation of a thigh hematoma. Two minutes after discontinuation of a 46 min CPR, a normotensive sinus node rhythm appeared at monitor. Despite of la...

Myxedema coma is a decompensated hypothyroidism which occurs due to long-standing, undiagnosed, or untreated hypothyroidism. Untreated hypothyroidism is known to affect almost all organs including the heart. It is associated with a decrease in cardiac output, stroke volume due to decreased myocardial contractility, and an increase in systemic vascular resistance. It can cause cardiac arrhythmia...

BACKGROUND Prolonged ventricular asystole is a rare vagal reaction caused by hydrocodone use. Sinus bradycardia is a characteristic presentation of the vasovagal response; examples of other presentations include arrest or atrioventricular block. Physicians need to be aware of ventricular asystole due to vagally-mediated atrioventricular block caused by hydrocodone or other opiates. CASE REPOR...

Coronary artery fistula arising from both the right coronary artery and the circumflex coronary artery is rare. A 28-year-old woman with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus and end-stage renal disease who was on regular hemodialysis complained of recent progressive exertional dyspnea. Congestive heart failure was diagnosed during work-up for simultaneous kidney and pancreas transplantation....

UNLABELLED INTRODUCTION Hypothermia is a relatively rare condition, and the effects of unintentional hypothermia on the heart are not known. CASE PRESENTATION This report describes the case of an 88-year-old Japanese man found in a coma and presenting with heart failure associated with hypothermia. He experienced sinus arrest, junctional rhythm and left ventricular systolic dysfunction wit...

A 45-year-old woman presented with persistent chest pain. She had no past medical history and was otherwise fit and well. A 12-lead ECG (Figure 1) recorded by the ambulance team triggered the primary percutaneous intervention pathway. On transit to the primary percutaneous intervention center, the patient suffered a ventricular fibrillation arrest, and sinus rhythm was successfully restored aft...

We present a rare case involving a ruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm (SVA) and acute myocardial infarction in a 39-year-old male patient. Coronary angiography showed normal findings; however, the patient showed remarkably elevated levels of cardiac enzymes and decreased left ventricular function with apical akinesia on transthoracic echocardiography. Transesophageal echocardiography revealed ...

Extradural haematomas are commonly associated with direct trauma to the temporal bones of the cranium resulting in damage to the middle meningeal artery or its branches. A case is presented of an occipital skull fracture with venous sinus bleeding that resulted in a posterior cranial fossa extradural haematoma. Bleeding in this area, if unrecognised, may lead rapidly to respiratory arrest secon...

1. Site of origin. They are either ventricular or supraventricular. Supraventricular ectopics may be subclassified into either: (a) atrial (originating in the atria) or (b) junctional or nodal (originating in the AV node or bundle of His). 2. Timing. Ectopic complexes that occur before the next normal complex would have been due are termed premature, and those that occur following a pause such ...
