Vagal Tone Increased

Presentation

If atrial epicardial wires are present, pacing the atrium at a more rapid rate allows verification of AV conduction. [misc.medscape.com]

Rarely, some individuals without known cardiac disease (young adults, well conditioned athletes) may present with a PR >0.2s that is physiologic. In this clinical presentation, administration of atropine invariably shortens the PR interval. [clinicaladvisor.com]

Obviously, if a child or young adult presents with symptoms such as syncope, or has an abnormal ECG, the phenotype is present. [hawaii.edu]

Subjects were required to answer aloud within 5 s after the presentation of each problem. The order of presentation was two serial subtraction problems, six arithmetic problems, and three additional serial subtraction problems. [ms-se.com]

Consequently, we can rule out the influences of change in respiratory frequency on the change in the HC in the present study. [jn.nutrition.org]

Entire Body System

  • Coronary Atherosclerosis

    Severity of coronary atherosclerosis correlates with the respiratory component of heart rate variability. Am. Heart J. 121:1070–1079, 1991. 47. Hinkle, L. E., S. T. Carver, and A. Plaken. [ms-se.com]

Cardiovascular

  • Hypotension

    Hypotension, or low blood pressure, is associated with increased nervous system activation and increased heart rate, but one type, hypovolemic hypotension, occurring after hemorrhage or certain drugs, induces a decrease in heart rate. [healthcentral.com]

    The moment infero posterior MI occur it stimualtes the vagus and a prompt bradycardic response occur .Many times the classical hypotension /bradycardia reaction is simply a reflection of heightened vagal tone. [drsvenkatesan.com]

    While atropine can be used to temporarily relieve the vagal hypertonicity, our patient is doing fine with no symptoms of bradycardia (which would be related to hypotension such as dizziness or syncope). [healio.com]

    Eur J Pharmacol 1979; 59:287-91 Isaac L: Clonidine in the central nervous system: Site and mechanism of hypotensive action. [anesthesiology.pubs.asahq.org]

  • Increased Sweating

    MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: The number of syncopes/presyncopes (orthostatic hypotension, tachypnoea, increased sweating) during interventions. [easystand.com]

Neurologic

  • Excitement

    This has been an exciting time for yoga research, as more studies emerge that continue to shed light on how yoga is effective in alleviating many mental and physical health problems. [kripalu.org]

    Both effects result from abnormal excitation of the vagus nerve, and hence, the term used to describe the loss of consciousness that may result is vasovagal syncope. [healthcentral.com]

    The first critical test of this exciting hypothesis was to cut the vagus nerve. When Tracey and his team did, injecting the anti-inflammatory drug into the brain no longer had an effect on the rest of the body. [blog.bulletproof.com]

    The muscle fibers of the heart are excitable cells like other muscle or nerve cells, but have a unique property. [afpafitness.com]

    In particular, during atrial fibrillation in patients with atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia due to conduction through the bypass tract (AVRT) the ventricles may become pre-excited, posing a risk of degeneration into ventricular fibrillation. [clinicaladvisor.com]

  • Hyperactivity

    Significantly, it decreases activity or hyperactivity between some critical brain regions. In this way, although pain awareness is increased, the negative experience or feeling of pain is decreased. [jonlieffmd.com]

    […] e.g., the Bezold-Jarish reflex, which is initiated from sensory receptors in the inferior-posterior regions of the heart during ischemia) have been associated with slowing of the HR, reduced myocardial oxygen demand, and a suppression of sympathetic hyperactivity [anesthesiology.pubs.asahq.org]

  • AV Block Mobitz I

    First Degree Heart Block: Prolonged PR interval 2. Second Degree Heart Block (Higher grade AV block): Mobitz Type I, Mobitz Type II B. Describe a diagnostic approach/method to the patient with this problem. [clinicaladvisor.com]

Treatment

1) 350-500 bpm 2) 60-170 bpm 3) Acute treatment: beta blocker, diltiazem, synchronized cardioversion; Chronic treatment: anticoagulation, ablation, flecanide, amiodarone Preventative treatment for post operative atrial fibrillation Preoperative beta [quizlet.com]

Treatment In most instances, hypotension and fainting are relatively benign. If you feel all right, you do not have to do anything. Treatment depends on the initiating mechanisms. [healthcentral.com]

Digoxin is indicated in the treatment of atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter and heart failure (currently it is not a first line treatment). [pharmacologycorner.com]

Understanding the causes of interpersonal disturbance within the disorder is, thus, important for developing treatments that can help ameliorate the misery defined by BPD. [grantome.com]

Prognosis

References Prognosis No evidence suggests increased mortality. Prognosis is good. Mortality/Morbidity The heart rate during a junctional rhythm often determines whether the patient has symptoms. [misc.medscape.com]

The prognosis of patients depends on the type of syndrome and the phenotype. [hawaii.edu]

Autonomic etiology of syncope is by far the most common. [hawaii.edu]

Laboratory testing PR> 0.2 s The type of PR abnormalities can be diagnosed via EKG analysis and the etiology is usually determined by history. [clinicaladvisor.com]

Epidemiological evidence indicates that physical activity is associated with a reduced risk of coronary heart disease ( 7,63,80 ). A number of mechanisms may be responsible for this effect of physical activity. [ms-se.com]

Pathophysiology

From: Principles of Pharmacology: The Pathophysiologic Basis of Drug Therapy, 2nd edition. D.Golan Digoxin Digoxin is a selective inhibitor of the plasma membrane sodium pump. [pharmacologycorner.com]

References Pathophysiology The junctional rhythm initiates within the AV nodal tissue. Accelerated junctional rhythm is a result of enhanced automaticity of the AVN that supersedes the sinus node rate. [misc.medscape.com]

Pathophysiology of arrhythmias and sudden cardiac arrest Patients with channelopathies have abnormal depolarization or repolarization in the cardiac action potential. [hawaii.edu]

This is not the case in patients with underlying cardiac pathophysiologic disease. [clinicaladvisor.com]

Prevention

Once recognized, the management of hereditary arrhythmia syndromes focuses on primary prevention of arrhythmias and sudden cardiac arrest, and secondary prevention of sudden cardiac death. [hawaii.edu]

This knowledge can be used to develop prevention and treatment efforts that target these specific processes. Public Health Relevance Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a severe and debilitating psychiatric disorder. [grantome.com]
