We descrive a patient who presents palpitations during cardiac rehabilitation after mitral valvuloplasty. ECG showed regular narrow QRS tachycardia compatible with Atrioventricular Node Reentrant Tachycardia. After slow pathway radiofrequency catheter ablation, the patient completed the rehabilitation program remained tachycardia and palpitations-free.

Brain function disorders, resulting for instance from stroke, epilepsy, or other incidents can be partially recovered by rehabilitation training. Performing neuro-rehabilitation in virtual reality systems allows for training scenarios close to daily tasks, is easily adaptable to the patients’ needs, is fully controllable by clinical staff, and guarantees patient safety at all times. In this pap...
