High levels of circulating epinephrine trigger apical cardiodepression in a β2-adrenergic receptor/Gi-dependent manner: a new model of Takotsubo cardiomyopathy.
BACKGROUND Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is an acute heart failure syndrome characterized by myocardial hypocontractility from the mid left ventricle to the apex. It is precipitated by extreme stress and can be triggered by intravenous catecholamine administration, particularly epinephrine. Despite its grave presentation, Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is rapidly reversible, with generally good prognosis....
متن کاملRecurrent, severe, and rapidly reversible apical ballooning syndrome in status asthmaticus.
Apical ballooning syndrome, or Tako-tsubo cardiomyopathy, is a peculiar form of transient left-ventricular dysfunction originally described as triggered by emotional stress. Subsequent reports indicated that physical stressors can also induce this clinical syndrome. We describe for the first time, to the best of our knowledge, a case of recurrent, severe, and quickly reversible apical balloonin...
متن کاملTakotsubo cardiomyopathy with meperidine.
I read with interest the article by Sacco et al entitlted “TakoTsubo like Syndrome Triggered by Meperidine” on anaphylaxis probably causing takotsubo syndrome . Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is also called stress induced cardiomyopathy or the broken heart syndrome. It is most commonly triggered by emotional stress causing transient apical and/or apical left ventricular systolic dysfunction in the ab...
متن کاملAdrenergic Inhibition with Dexmedetomidine to Treat Stress Cardiomyopathy during Alcohol Withdrawal: A Case Report and Literature Review
Stress (Takotsubo) cardiomyopathy is a form of reversible left ventricular dysfunction with a heightened risk of ventricular arrhythmia thought to be caused by high circulating catecholamines. We report a case of stress cardiomyopathy that developed during severe alcohol withdrawal successfully treated with dexmedetomidine. The case involves a 53-year-old man with a significant history of alcoh...
متن کاملManagement of an acute catecholamine-induced cardiomyopathy and circulatory collapse: a multidisciplinary approach
A phaeochromocytoma (PC) is a rare, catecholamine-secreting neuroendocrine tumour arising from the adrenal medulla. Presenting symptoms of this rare tumour are highly variable but life-threatening multiorgan dysfunction can occur secondary to catecholamine-induced hypertension or hypotension and subsequent cardiovascular collapse. High levels of circulating catecholamines can induce an acute st...
