A 67 year old man presented with a serum potassium of 7.7 mEq/L and slow atrial flutter with variable A-V block and peaked T waves. Initial treatment for hyperkalemia was followed by an increase in the atrial flutter rate to 300 beats per minute. Aft

Absence of post-extrasystolic potentiation in takotsubo cardiomyopathy: Another piece of the puzzle?
Publikováno v:
International Journal of Cardiology. 225:9-13
Background Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM) is an intriguing phenomenon characterized by transient and reversible left ventricular (LV) dysfunction despite angiographically unobstructed coronary arteries. The detailed pathophysiology of stunned, viable

OBJECTIVES Currently, there are limited data on mortality or predictors of survival for patients admitted to the coronary care unit (CCU). The purpose of this study was to provide data on mortality in the modern-day CCU and to better define factors i

Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM) is an increasingly recognized condition that often mimics myocardial infarction (MI). Distinction is important because the clinical course differs extensively, as TCM has favorable prognosis with full LV recovery. Altho

We present a case of pericardial effusion in the setting of Takosubo Cardiomyopathy. Our case is instructive in highlighting the importance of careful clinical observation in the setting of decreased left ventricular function and also in challenging

The objective of this study was to assess whether statin therapy is associated with a reduction in ventricular tachyarrhythmias. Statins have been shown to be beneficial beyond their cholesterol-lowering effects. These pleiotropic effects have been i

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in patients with immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is rare. We describe a case of AMI in patient with ITP. An 81-year-old woman presented with acute inferoposterior MI with low platelet count on admission (34,000

Dynamic left ventricular outflow obstruction is a less well-known mechanical complication of acute myocardial infarction. Early diagnosis is important because initiation of proper manage ment and avoidance of precipitating factors can lead to complet

Occurrence of life threatening arrhythmias and sudden death during or following sexual activity is infrequent. We describe a patient with an implantable cardioverter defibrillator who developed increased ventricular ectopic activity followed by susta
