Journal ArticleDOI
Power Spectral Analysis of Heart Rate Varability in Sudden Cardiac Death: Comparison to Other Methods
G.A. Myers,Gary J. Martin,N.M. Magid,Phillip S. Barnett,John W. Schaad,Jerry S. Weiss,Michael Lesch,Donald H. Singer +7 more
TL;DR: Heart rate variability was found to be reduced in cardiac patients known to be at increased risk of SCD, when compared to those not at increased Risk, suggesting that this method may be useful in categorizing cardiac patients according to risk of sudden cardiac death.
Journal ArticleDOI
Heart rate variability and sudden death secondary to coronary artery disease during ambulatory electrocardiographic monitoring
Gary J. Martin,Norman M. Magid,Glenn A. Myers,Phillip S. Barnett,John W. Schaad,Jerry S. Weiss,Michael Lesch,Donald H. Singer +7 more
TL;DR: Findings support suggestions that HR variability analysis may be useful in identifying patients at a higher risk of sudden death.
Journal ArticleDOI
Low heart rate variability and sudden cardiac death.
Donald H. Singer,Gary J. Martin,Norman M. Magid,Jerry S. Weiss,John W. Schaad,Richard F. Kehoe,Terry Zheutlin,Dan J. Fintel,Ann Ming Hsieh,Michael Lesch +9 more
TL;DR: HRV measurements have potential for serving as an independent predictor of inducibility in response to programmed ventricular stimulation and that they could represent a noninvasive screen for patients referred for evaluation of risk of SCD because of asymptomatic ventricular ectopy or other causes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Incidence and clinical significance of transient creatine kinase elevations and the diagnosis of non-Q wave myocardial infarction associated with coronary angioplasty.
TL;DR: Normal cardiac serum enzyme release after apparently successful coronary angioplasty is relatively common; has many possible causes, including both minor complications and early reversibility of impending major complications; and results in no permanent clinical sequelae.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alteration of left ventricular performance by left bundle branch block simulated with atrioventricular sequential pacing
Joseph Askenazi,Joseph Askenazi,Jay Alexander,Jay Alexander,David I. Koenigsberg,David I. Koenigsberg,Nenad Belic,Nenad Belic,Michael Lesch,Michael Lesch +9 more
TL;DR: The effects of atrioventricular (AV) sequential pacing-induced left bundle branch block (LBBB) on left ventricular (LV) performance were evaluated during cardiac catheterization in 9 randomly selected patients being investigated for chest pain.
