Abstract Introduction Severe transitory episodes of bradycardia with subsequent syncope in children are common, and generally portend a benign prognosis. Rarely, patients may experience prolonged asystolic episodes secondary to significant sinus pauses (SP) or paroxysmal atrioventricular block (AVB).

Ablation to prevent recurrent flutter was performed. These include not only induction of significant bradycardia ( albeit usually short-lived ) — but also both ventricular and supraventricular tachyarrhythmias. The subsequent EP study could not induce VT, only atrial fibrillation.

3] So a patient with WPW can have the pattern induced by ischemia, and there is also a report of a patient with pre-existing WPW which was “ablated” by myocardial infarction after an LAD occlusion.[4] Delta waves are seen in 11/12 leads. In most of these leads — the PR interval is clearly shortened, with resultant QRS widening.

There was no evidence bradycardia leading up to the runs of PMVT ( as tends to occur with Torsades ). If there had been — a temporary atrial pacemaker could have been considered as a way of increasing the heart rate to suppress a bradycardia-dependent arrhythmia ("overdrive pacing").

This ECG shows sinus bradycardia with massively long QT (or QU?) Especially when present in the setting of bradycardia and syncopal episodes, this is very worrisome for high risk of lethal dysrhythmias including polymorphic ventricular fibrillation (termed Torsades when in the setting of long QT). interval, at over 600 msec.

Conclusions This study is expected to provide valuable findings regarding arrhythmia in HFnon-rEF patients, and elucidate a potential new therapeutic approach for HFnon-rEF.

Invasive ablation procedure are reserved for a fraction of the population. Any good physician can easily recognize and manage this arrhythmia with simple measures, advices and liberal use of beta blockers, without the need of tricky drugs like Amiodarone.

There are 2 main options: Overdrive pacing could be considered and in the right clinical situation, this is often effective for reducing ventricular arrhythmias ( especially in the case of preventing pause induced or bradycardia-induced arrhythmias in association with QTc prolongation ). Try a different kind of antiarrhythmic.
