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.

The patient was transported to the CCU for further medical optimization where a pulmonary artery catheter was placed. DISCUSSION: The 12-lead EKG EMS initially obtained for this patient showed severe ischemia, with profound "infero-lateral" ST depression and reciprocal ST elevation in lead aVR.

The ECG shows sinus tachycardia with RBBB and LAFB, without clear additional superimposed signs of ischemia. See these publications for more information Overall, management for cardiac contusion is mostly supportive unless surgical complications develop, involving appropriate treatment of dysrhythmias and hemodynamic instability.

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. The rhythm is atrial fibrillation. The QRS complex is within normal limits.

And superimposed subendocardial ischemia pattern, of course. Flecainide : This is a potentially dangerous Na channel blocker which can cause ventricular dysrhythmias including ventricular fibrillation. She was otherwise very stable during this rhythm. The physicians gave some IV metoprolol and restarted her on home PO metoprolol.

Bedside ultrasound showed no effusion and moderately decreased LV function, with B-lines of pulmonary edema. If there is polymorphic VT with a long QT on the baseline ECG, then generally we call that Torsades, but Non-Torsades Polymorphic VT can result from ischemia alone. Could the dysrhythmias have been prevented?
