Carbamazepine-induced atrioventricular block in an elderly woman.
An 88-year-old woman was admitted to the emergency department after experiencing syncope while in a sitting position. Electrocardiogram showed advanced degree heart block. She has been on low-dose carbamazepine (200 mg/day) for the last year for trigeminal neuralgia (TN). After discontinuation of carbamazepine, the patient returned to normal sinus rhythm.
متن کاملSinus node function in children with congenital complete atrioventricular block.
AIMS Children with congenital complete atrioventricular block (CCAVB) often need pacemaker therapy. In these children, it may be preferable to use single-lead VDD pacing, but for VDD pacing a normal sinus node function is required. Our aim was to study sinus node function in children with CCAVB. METHODS AND RESULTS We longitudinally evaluated sinus rate in 36 children with CCAVB and normal an...
متن کاملTransient atrioventricular block following catheter radiofrequency sinus node modification.
Complete atrioventricular block, second-degree Mobitz type II and first-degree atrioventricular block with right bundle branch block were observed consecutively following successful radiofrequency ablation in close proximity to the sinus node. This resulted in the modification and disappearance of the inappropriate sinus tachycardia that had previously been present. Neither tachycardia nor cond...
متن کاملConcurrent atrioventricular block, sinus arrest and pneumothorax in a dog secondary to vehicle accident
In human several kinds of electrocardiographic findings have been reported in association with pneumothorax such as decreased and/or alternating QRS amplitude (electrical alternans). However, electrocardiographic changes concurrent with pneumothorax have rarely been discussed in veterinary literature. A 3-year-old male crossbreed dog was presented with a history of car accident. Thoracic au...
متن کاملPreoperative secundum atrial septal defect with coexisting sinus node and atrioventricular node dysfunction.
Sinus node dysfunction in patients after repair of the secundum atrial septal defect has been ascribed to surgical damage. We studied 15 consecutive patients with secundum atrial septal defect before operative intervention. Noninvasive testing included 34-hour electrocardiographic monitoring and a standard 13-lead ECG. Intracardiac electrophysiologic techniques included corrected sinus node rec...
