In medicine, disequilibrium refers to impaired equilibrioception that can be characterised as a sensation of impending fall or of the need to obtain external assistance for proper locomotion. [en.wikipedia.org]

[…] distal to insertion site o Monitor for signs and symptoms of intrapericardial bleeding, including decreasing blood pressure, rising venous pressure, pulus paradoxus, and distal heart sounds. o Monitor for signs and symptoms of hemothorax, including a fall [slideshare.net]

Fixed-rate pacing produces an electrical impulse at the set rate no matter the intrinsic cardiac activity of the heart, while demand pacing will only deliver an electrical impulse if the patient’s heart rate falls below the set rate. [jems.com]

Complications Complications include the following: Sudden cardiac death due to asystole Syncope Musculoskeletal injuries secondary to fall after syncope. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Additionally, recent studies on molecular and pathological features, show that nearly 25% of endometrial cancers do not fall neatly into the traditional two tier system of endometrial cancer subtypes with significant molecular heterogeneity[39–41]. [journals.plos.org]

Patients with second degree block will frequently complain of palpitations or skipped beats or may feel lightheaded or dizzy. They may occasionally experience near syncope or syncope (passing out). The above EKG shows an example of Mobitz type I. [equimedcorp.com]

Finally, an atrial impulse is blocked in the AV node and fails to conduct to the ventricles, leading to a skipped beat. [washingtonhra.com]

This can result in no pulse or a very slow pulse if a back up heart rate is present. What causes heart block? If you are born with heart block, it's called congenital heart block. [cedars-sinai.org]

Forget the data about amio and procainamide for VT, they have you choose amiodarone because it will also treat supraventricular arrhythmias and not everyone doing ACLS will be able to figure out what is VT and what is SVT [forums.studentdoctor.net]

[…] accompany QRS complexes and vice versus, hence no relationship between the atriums and ventricles You can’t measure a PR interval because the atriums and ventricles are independent Quiz on Heart Blocks Now test your knowledge on heart blocks and don’t forget [registerednursern.com]

Forgetting to do so may result in overlooking the reason for a change in AV conduction ratios ( as occurs here between Tracing A and Tracing B ). ------------------------------------------- - For more information – GO TO: See Section 20.0 ( from ACLS- [ecg-interpretation.blogspot.com]

Neurologic disorders tend to cause constant vertigo or disequilibrium and usually have other symptoms of neurologic dysfunction associated with the vertigo. [en.wikipedia.org]

It includes hemiparesis, vertigo/dizziness, diplopia, dysarthria, nausea/vomiting, headache and hemiataxia. There is an elevated risk for transient ischemic attacks, premature stroke and dementia7,8. [romanianjournalcardiology.ro]

Commonly used terminology includes: First degree AV block – Delayed conduction from the atrium to the ventricle (defined as a prolonged PR interval of 200 milliseconds) without interruption in atrial to ventricular conduction. [uptodate.com]

In this variant of second degree heart block the PR interval is constant with occasional dropped beats as compared to the gradually prolonging PR interval in Mobitz type I. [wikidoc.org]

Every-other-P wave conducts – as determined by the presence of a fixed ( albeit prolonged ) PR interval preceding each QRS complex on the tracing. This is 2nd degree AV block with 2:1 AV conduction. [ecg-interpretation.blogspot.com]

However, a proportion of acute ischemic stroke patients might have cardiac complications such as systolic dysfunction, troponin elevation, AF, or ischemic changes on ECG [ 4 ]. [panafrican-med-journal.com]

However, routine preoperative resting 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) revealed a second-degree 2:1 AV block with a narrow QRS complex (0.102 s), heart rate (HR) of 46 bpm, normal axis, and with no ischemic change (Fig. 1). [jaclinicalreports.springeropen.com]
