| dc.description.abstract | Objective: To discuss mechanisms and management of severe cardiac arrhythmias caused by household (less than 220 V) electrical injury. Design: We describe a patient with cardiac arrhythmia and neurological dysfunction following low voltage household electrical injury. The patient was in atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular rate. He was experiencing very short VF and VT attacks. Patient: A 23-year-old previously healthy male. Setting: A 10-bed ICU of Celal Bayar University hospital. Interventions: Invasive monitoring, monitorization of cardiac enzymes, angiography, EEG were performed during the patient's follow-up. Results and Conclusion: Successful pharmacological cardioversion was achieved under amiodarone infusion. | |
