Abstract

Background: Atrioventricular (AV) block is a threatening condition that caused sudden loss of consciousness and death, notably if happened to aircraft pilot will compromise the reliability of flight operations and safety. Cardiac arrhythmia is well known as one of the main disqualifier for loss of flying license, and discriminating between benign and potentially significant rhythm abnormalities remains a challenge. The present case describes the electrophysiological feature of a high-grade AV block in an aircraft pilot. Case illustration: A 60-year-old male worked as commercial aircraft pilot presented with asymptomatic high-grade AV block during inflight Holter monitoring. He had never experienced any remarkable symptoms nor history of near syncope, but had a history of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with one stent at left circumflex (LCx) coronary artery. Electrophysiology (EP) study revealed AH interval of 105 ms, HV interval of 50 ms, AV node effective refractory period of 280 ms and Weckenbach point of 330 ms, suggesting a normal EP study. Stimulation with atrial pacing and ATP showed prolongation of AH interval without changes in HV interval, showing the presence of a supra-Hisian AV node dysfunction. The highly demanding physiological environment in aircraft elucidate the likelihood of vagotonic cause of his condition and pacemaker implantation was not warranted. Conclusion: Atrioventricular (AV) block is an AV conduction disorder that can manifests in various symptoms and severity. Electrophysiology study is considered as a modality to locate the site of block that allows the avoidance of unnecessary permanent pacing and the appropriate prophylactic pacing.

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Local anesthesia is considered safe and commonly used in the pacemaker implantation procedure. However, it carries a risk of local anesthetic systemic toxicity (LAST). Although rare, LAST occurrence can be fatal. CASE PRESENTATIONS: We reported a case of a 69-year-old woman with fatigue and dizziness. The patient's ECG indicates atrial fibrillation with total AV block. Pacemaker implantation was performed under local anesthesia. Within minutes of lidocaine injection, the patient developed a seizure followed by cardiac arrest. Immediate administration of intravenous midazolam and cardiopulmonary resuscitation was done, resulting in the patient's stability. A permanent pacemaker was successfully implanted using a modified hand-shaped stylet to accommodate the presence of a persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC). Brain computed tomography scan showed only mild brain atrophy. No clinical symptoms were documented during the outpatient visit after discharge. CONCLUSIONS: Local anesthetic systemic toxicity during pacemaker implantation is a rare but potentially catastrophic. Prompt recognition of its signs and appropriate management are crucial. In this case, a persistent left superior vena cava posed additional challenges to the pacemaker implantation.
