What are treatment options for this rhythm, when all else fails?

Dr. Smith's ECG Blog

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").

Cardioneuroablation for pediatric patients with functional sinus node dysfunction and paroxysmal atrioventricular block

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology

Abstract Introduction Severe transitory episodes of bradycardia with subsequent syncope in children are common, and generally portend a benign prognosis. Conclusion CNA may be an effective alternative to pacemaker implantation in pediatric patients with syncope or significant symptoms secondary to functional SP or AVB. s (range 0.8–2.2)

Rationale and design of the NEO-NORMAL-AF study examination of the usefulness of implantable loop recorder for arrhythmia detection including atrial fibrillation in heart failure with non-reduced ejection fraction cases: a pilot study

Open Heart

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.
