Short-coupled ventricular ectopics leading to cardiac arrest in a young woman
Abstract Background This case report highlights the importance of recognizing that ventricular ectopy may be a cause for syncope and sudden cardiac death, through triggered disorganized arrhythmia. In the context of syncope, ventricular ectopy should be carefully assessed for coupling interval and m...
