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.

The patient went for EP study and had prolonged HV interval which strongly supports placement of a pacemaker. He underwent dual chamber pacemaker implantation and did well. Quite surprisingly, carotid massage slows the sinus rate slightly, and as a result instantly improves AV conduction to 1:1, supporting Mobitz II AV block!

That said — obvious findings include: i ) Marked bradycardia! — My Immediate Impression — was that this elderly woman with a several week history of symptoms would most likely leave the hospital with a pacemaker. The rhythm in Figure-1 is complex — and defies precise interpretation without careful study. be regular! —

The patient was extubated on Day-3 of the hospital stay. The patient improved, and on Day-11 of the hospital stay — he was off inotropes and on a small dose of a ß-blocker. There was no evidence bradycardia leading up to the runs of PMVT ( as tends to occur with Torsades ).

Patients use them to observe their heart activity by themselves when they are not in the hospital. Though their accuracy is not as high as a hospital ECG machine, they are very beneficial in detecting problems in any medical emergency and providing information about long-term heart activity.

After the heart rate increased slightly, here was the repeat ECG: Sinus bradycardia, only slightly faster rate than prior. Because of its potential for invoking uneeded cardiac catheterization or hospital admission — it is worth periodically reviewing this ECG pattern.

PVCs N ot generally considered abnormal ECG findings: Isolated PAC, First Degree AV Block, Sinus bradycardia at a rate of 35-45, and Nonspecific ST-T abnormalities (even if different from a previous ECG). Thus, if there is documented sinus bradycardia, and no suspicion of high grade AV block, at the time of the syncope, this is very useful.
