We present a case of Torsade de Pointes secondary to multiple factors including patient susceptibility and iatrogenic influences. Contributing causes are presented, the approach treatment is discussed.
Convergent atrial fibrillation ablation involves extensive epicardial as well endocardial of the left atrium. We examined whether it changes morphology surface P wave. reviewed electrocardiograms 29 patients who underwent convergent for fibrillation. In leads V1, II and III, we measured wave duration, area amplitude before ablation, at 1, 3 6 months from ablation. After there were no significant in amplitude, area, or duration III. There was a reduction terminal negative deflection V1 0.38...
A 59-year-old woman with highly symptomatic recurrent paroxysmal atrial fibrillation had failed antiarrhythmic therapy and pulmonary vein isolation. Owing to her large left size isolation, she underwent the convergent ablation. 3-cm subxiphoid incision was made at central tendon of diaphragm above liver, medial falciform ligament. Through this port, VisiTrax ablation device (nContact, Inc., Morrisville, NC, USA) advanced into pericardial space performed posterior atrium around veins....
It is always important to maintain a high index of suspicion in the diagnosis acute pulmonary embolism (PE). Death patients with undiagnosed PE was shown be 4 - 6 times higher than those definite and treatment. The ECG as much it has great utility, unfortunately lacks sensitivity specificity, providing findings that might serve red herrings unsuspecting physician by suggesting an alternative diagnosis. This report describes woman whose EKG showed ST segment elevations suggestive inferior...
With a wide array of manifestations ranging from mild dyspnea to fatal cardiogenic shock, acute pulmonary embolism (PE) remains an enigmatic clinical entity.Vivid electrocardiography (ECG) patterns portrayed in different instances PE have always remained interesting, yet debatable subject since the classic S1Q3T3 pattern on ECG secondary was first described 1935.Atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter and tachycardia are commonly supraventricular tachycardias association with PE; however, there...
Addison's disease (AD) is a metabolic disorder that affects the metabolism of potassium. The hyperkalemia results from this condition can be reflected in electrocardiogram, which could confound diagnosis other cardiac conditions. Such challenging situation was encountered when 73-year-old male with history AD presented to emergency department chest pain.
