Abstract

While young sudden cardiac death (SCD) is statistically uncommon, its dramatic presentation and the impact it has on families and communities make it a newsworthy issue. Nonetheless, it is important to view SCD in children and adolescents as a public health concern and devise strategies based on research and consensus to address it. Both individuals with and without a history of cardiovascular illness are susceptible to sudden cardiac death. Employing cardiovascular disease risk screening for healthy individuals and those with a family history of sudden cardiac death can serve as a preventive approach against sudden cardiac death. Assessing the severity of cardiovascular disease in people becomes essential in order to prevent disease progression and minimize the risk of mortality from cardiovascular conditions.

Abstract

BackgroundSudden mortality due to persistent VT or VF accounted for around half of all fatalities in these high-risk individuals. Myocardial ischemia, acute heart failure, electrolyte abnormalities, hypoxia, and drug-related arrhythmogenicity are all risk factors for electrical storms. The most common electrolyte imbalance is hypokalemia.Case illustration:A 54-year-old man was readmitted to ER with palpitations and chest pain. The patient's heart rate was recorded as sinus bradycardia however, shortly the patient developed ventricular tachycardia of approximately 300 beats per minute (bpm) and unstable. Although multiple synchronized cardioversion dosage was administered, the VT reoccurred again. Complete revascularization was demonstrated at his most recent catheterization three months ago. His potassium in the serum was 2.88 mmol/L and corrected with drip KCl. The patient's potassium levels were then normalized stable for the remainder of their hospital stay.ConclusionCareful medication reconciliation is critical for avoiding the potentially fatal cardiovascular effects of severe hypokalemia. Patients with CHF are more likely to have life-threatening hypokalemia and ventricular arrhythmias. The phenotypic expression of ventricular tachycardia in HF results from alterations in neurohormonal signaling, structural remodeling, and electrophysiology.

Abstract

Implantable Electronic Devices (CIEDs) have significantly transformed the treatment of various heart conditions. However, their growing use has been accompanied by an increase in device-related infections, posing a serious medical concern. Early identification of CIED infections is essential for prompt and effective treatment. Typical clinical signs include localized infection symptoms—such as redness, warmth, and tenderness around the implant site—as well as general symptoms like fever and fatigue. Diagnostic support also comes from laboratory tests, particularly elevated inflammatory markers. Management of these infections requires a coordinated, multidisciplinary approach. Timely removal of the infected device is critical, along with the administration of targeted antibiotics based on culture and sensitivity findings. In some instances, surgical removal of the entire device, including any leads, may be necessary. Preventing such infections is equally important and involves strict adherence to aseptic techniques during implantation and any subsequent procedures. Prophylactic antibiotics may also be warranted for patients at high risk. In summary, the successful management of CIED infections relies on early detection, accurate diagnosis, and a well-coordinated treatment plan. Preventive measures are vital in decreasing infection rates and ensuring the best possible outcomes for patients.
