Postexertional Supraventricular Tachycardia in Children with Catecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia
Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is a severe arrhythmia associated with sudden death in the young. It is caused by defective calcium handling in ventricular myocytes. The association of supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) with CPVT is described in the literature, occurring in the lead-up to ventricular tachycardia during exercise testing. We describe three cases of SV...

A previously healthy 18-year-old woman presented to her local hospital with 3 days of heart failure symptoms. An echocardiogram showed severe left ventricular dilation and global hypokinesis with an ejection fraction of 17%. Her history and clinical evaluation were consistent with an acute virus-induced cardiomyopathy. She had not taken any medications before her presentation, and her initial E...

متن کاملCatecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia.
Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia is a rare cause of exercise-induced arrhythmia and sudden cardiac death in the pediatric patient. This arrhythmia is difficult to diagnose in the emergency department, given the range of presentations; thus, a familiarity with and high index of suspicion for this pathology are crucial. Furthermore, recognition of the characteristic electroca...
متن کاملCatecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia.
Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is an inherited cardiac arrhythmia disorder that is characterized by emotion- and exercise-induced polymorphic ventricular arrhythmias and may lead to sudden cardiac death (SCD). CPVT plays an important role in SCD in the young and therefore recognition and adequate treatment of the disease are of vital importance. In the past years t...
