BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Brugada syndrome (BrS) is an inherited disease associated with an increased risk of ventricular arrhythmias. (bvsalud.org)
Brugada syndrome is an inherited channelopathy causing an increased risk of ventricular tachycardia (VT) and ventricular fibrillation (VF) leading to syncope and sudden death. (msdmanuals.com)
Cardiac4
It increases the risk of abnormal heart rhythms and sudden cardiac death. (wikipedia.org)
Those at higher risk of sudden cardiac death may be treated using an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD). (wikipedia.org)
At your institution, what is the standard practice for sedating pediatric patients after cardiac catheterization procedures to facilitate bed rest in the post-anesthesia care unit? (ccasociety.org)
These are used during some cardiac procedures or taken as tablets to prevent stroke in atrial fibrillation. (heartrhythmclinic.com)
Surgical3
English: Case presentationA 42-year-old Caucasian Brazilian man referred by his ophthalmologist to evaluate the surgical risk for cataract surgery. (vdocuments.net)
There is a concern that it might interfere with surgical procedures by increasing heart rate and blood pressure. (rxlist.com)
These new vessels are prone to bleeding into the center of the eye, often requiring a surgical procedure called a vitrectomy to clear the blood. (pharmaceuticalintelligence.com)
Ventricular fibrillation1
It is associated with a characteristic ECG pattern of "coved-type" ST-elevation in leads V1-V3 and a right bundle branch pattern, which predisposes to a high risk of sudden death due to ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation [1, 2]. (ccasociety.org)
Increases1
the risk for cardiomyopathy increases as the cumulative dose increases and is also dependent on other/additional risk factors. (medilib.ir)
History1
METHODS: Continuous 5-minute 12-lead ECG recordings were obtained in sinus rhythm from a) patients with spontaneous or ajmaline-induced BrS and no history of AF and b) subjects with suspected BrS and negative ajmaline challenge. (bvsalud.org)
High risk1
We then applied these family criteria to a high-risk cohort from a clinical genetics department and demonstrated that they have substantial diagnostic accuracy. (cdc.gov)
Additional risk1
It is associated with an additional risk of stroke if not treated. (heartrhythmclinic.com)
Factors1
Women who use combination hormonal contraceptives must take into account the risk factors for VTE. (emedz.net)
Group2
In those without symptoms the risk of death is much lower, and how to treat this group is less clear. (wikipedia.org)
A Delphi procedure carried out in a larger group of expert physicians led to consensus on five family criteria that focus on cardiovascular events at young age (i.e., sudden death, any CVD, implantable cardioverter-defibrillator, aortic aneurysm) and/or an inherited CVD in one or more close relatives.
