Background On the one hand, the primary coronary slow flow phenomenon (CSFP) can cause recurrence of chest pain, prompting medical examinations and further healthcare costs, while on the other hand, it can lead to myocardial infarction, ventricular arrhythmia and sudden cardiac death.

Therefore this is " Transient ST Elevation Unstable Angina." As there was ruptured plaque, this is NOT Prinzmetal's angina. Here are many other cases of Unstable Angina , in spite of Eugene Braunwald's Requiem for Unstable Angina. So Unstable Angina still exists [even with high sensitivity (hs) troponins].

However some patients can develop heart failure, angina, and arrhythmia due to significant intracardiac shunt or coronary steal phenomenon. Patient was planned to gradually start cardiac rehab.Discussion:CCF is a rare anomalous connection between coronary arteries and a cardiac chamber or other major blood vessels of the heart.

Angina is another common symptom due the hypertrophy which causes a coronary supply demand mismatch Symptoms of HCM include syncope/near syncope, which could be precipitated by exertion, hypovolemia, rapid standing, Valsalva manoeuvre, diuretics, vasodilators or arrhythmia. Palpitations can be felt if there are arrhythmias.

Measurement of QT interval is very important, as QT prolongation can predispose to serious, life threatening ventricular arrhythmias. QT prolongation leads to torsades des pointes, which is a very serious arrhythmia. That is usually with angina and ventricular strain patterns. One easy value which I remember is 0.34

A middle aged male with no h/o CAD presented with one week of crescendo exertional angina, and had chest pain at the time of the first ECG: Here is the patient's previous ECG: Here is the patient's presenting ED ECG: There is isolated ST depression in precordial leads, deeper in V2 - V4 than in V5 or V6. There is no ST elevation.

The finding of all negative QRS complexes in leads V3-thru- V6 therefore strongly suggests that the arrhythmia-associated impulse is not traveling over an AP ( Steurer et al — Clin. This should result in at least some positivity of QRS complexes as one moves toward the lateral chest leads. Cardiol 17:306-308, 1994 ).

Findings also confirm previous healthy volunteer trials with IR NIC highlighting no tendency promoting arrhythmia in normal, non-ischemic myocardium. While EU labeling and trials highlight no proarrhythmogenicity lack of recent data remains along with prior reports of potential impact of IR NIC on EKG patterns.

Relationship between Ischemia and arrhythmia While the relationship between Ischemia and VT is really complex, the term “Ischemic VT” itself adds more twists. In chronic VT , shooting down the ischemic focus by ablation its more likely to extinguish the arrhythmia ,rather than revascularization.

On Sunday, the patient complained of dyspnea and angina while ambulating. Initial hsTnI was 14,114 ng/L, repeat 12,651 ng/L, none further checked. Echocardiogram showed inferior wall hypokinesis. The patient was evaluated Saturday with no changes to plan. Repeat ECG is shown.
