Popis: | The aim of this study was to investigate the electrocardiographic parameters in patients consuming synthetic cannabinoids.Thirty-five patients who were consuming synthetic cannabinoids were enrolled to the study, prospectively. The control group included 35 healthy age and sex-matched volunteers. The standard 12-lead surface electrocardiograms of the study population were recorded. P maximum (PPAltered electrocardiography parameters linked with atrial and ventricular arrhythmia development may be observed in patients consuming synthetic cannabinoids. These patients should be evaluated regularly for cardiovascular disease and arrhythmia development. The electrocardiogram, which is a cheap and easy test to apply, can be used to determine the pro-arrythmic risk in patients consuming synthetic cannabinoids. |
