• Severe Clinical Course

  After a severe clinical course, the baby had external left ventricular assist as a bridge to heart transplantation. 1.5 months after transplantation, the baby suffered sudden cardiac death (SCD) despite maximal treatment in the pediatric intensive care [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Jaw Pain

  pain, or nausea) of chest pain, they may go unrecognized. 22 In addition, reports have indicated that the risk factors for and pathophysiology of SCD may differ in younger versus older women. [oadoi.org]

For athletes with documented or suspected heart disease of any kind, including arrhythmias, the book presents practical guidelines for diagnostic workup, therapy, recommendations about exercise, and eligibility for athletic competition. [amazon.com]

The focus is on exclusion of known phenotypes/genotypes or, alternatively, the blind workup of a relative of an undiagnosed cardiac arrest. [patient.info]

Procainamide testing may provoke a Brugada pattern irrespective of the baseline ECG and should be considered in the workup of SCD. 66 Cardiac MRI (ARVC, sarcoidosis, myocarditis, myocardial injury from coronary spasm). [aerjournal.com]

• Ejection Fraction Decreased

  fraction decreases below 35%. 63 Thus, if the patients’ ejection fraction was closer to 35%, these older patients may derive less or no benefit. [circ.ahajournals.org]

• Narrow QRS Complex

  An ECG from patient 12 (Table ), taken 6 months before death, showed atrial fibrillation with a rapid ventricular response and narrow QRS complexes. [doi.org]

Withdrawals due to adverse effects were increased in the drug treatment group to 12.8%, as compared with 6.2% in the no treatment group. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Treatment in a Hospital If you survive SCA, you'll likely be admitted to a hospital for ongoing care and treatment. In the hospital, your medical team will closely watch your heart. [web.archive.org]

Various studies suggest a potential application of biomarkers in diagnostics, prognosis and treatment response. Further approaches include microRNAs or multimarker approaches. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

All of these blood levels tend to be abnormal in the most functionally impaired patient, so they tend to separate the patient with a very bad prognosis from a bad prognosis. [content.onlinejacc.org]

Prognosis Sudden cardiac death is reversible in most people if treatment is begun quickly. [medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com]

The worst cardiac prognosis was seen in patients receiving diuretics or angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors who had not suffered a definite myocardial infarction, regardless of age. [doi.org]

Currently, the etiology, pathogenesis, and pathophysiology of ECPA are unknown. Cases of ECPA with a history of allergic disorders are rare. Only one case of ECPA with tissue eosinophilia in another organ has been reported. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
