Popis: | We report a 17‐year‐old woman with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) successfully resuscitated from ventricular fibrillation while taking cibenzoline. During exercise–stress testing before implanting an implantable cardioverter–defibrillator, ventricular tachycardia was induced and thought to be a proarrhythmia due to the use‐dependent effect of the Na channel blockade with cibenzoline. In patients with arrhythmogenic substrates such as HCM, it is critical to pay attention to the proarrhythmic effects of class I antiarrhythmic drugs while increasing heart rate. |
