CT of the chest showed no pulmonary embolism but bibasilar infiltrates. It should be kept in mind that on occasions, beta-one agonist can result in increased ventricular ectopy e.g., in severe myocardial ischemia (by increasing myocardial demand), or sometimes with congenital long-QT syndrome. She was intubated.

This usually represents posterior OMI, but in tachycardia and especially after cardiac arrest, this could simply be demand ischemia, residual subendocardial ischemia due to the low flow state of the cardiac arrest. This rules out subendocardial ischemia and is diagnostic of posterior OMI. V4-5 continue to show STD.

She was successfully revived after several rounds of ACLS including defibrillation and amiodarone. Alternation in ST segment appearance ( or in the amount of ST elevation or depression ) — is often linked to ischemia. On arrival to the ED the patient was intubated with normal vital signs.

This may result in ischemia (lack of oxygen to the heart muscle), causing parts of the heart to weaken and enlarge. Chronic Pulmonary Disease Lung diseases like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) can lead to pulmonary hypertension, which in turn can cause the right side of the heart to enlarge, a condition known as cor pulmonale.

It was reportedly a PEA arrest; there was no recorded V Fib and no defibrillation. In terms of ischemia, there is both a signal of subendocardial ischemia (STD max in V5-V6 with reciprocal STE in aVR) AND a signal of transmural infarction of the inferior wall with Q wave and STE in lead III with reciprocal STD in I and aVL.

Bedside ultrasound showed no effusion and moderately decreased LV function, with B-lines of pulmonary edema. At cath, he immediately had incessant Torsades de Pointes requiring defibrillation 7 times and requiring placement of a transvenous pacer for overdrive pacing at a rate of 80. He appeared to be in shock.

she had severe pulmonary edema. This is the etiology of the blood from her nose and mouth (frothy bloody pulmonary edema) This is what frothy bloody pulmonary edema looks like. Subarachnoid hemorrhage causes extreme central catecholamine output, resulting in stress cardiomyopathy, just like takotsubo. From this site.
