Journal ArticleDOI
Cardiac conduction in patients with symptomatic sinus node disease.
TL;DR: In conclusion, abnormalities of conduction and automaticity in specialized tissue in addition to the sinus node are common in patients with symptomatic sinus nodes disease and should be recognized when present, so that the ideal site for permanent pacing may be chosen.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acute Hemodynamic Effects of Dopamine in Patients with Shock
TL;DR: Dopamine improves MAP pressure, CO, and UF when shock is due to infection and is superior to Isp which does not increase perfusion pressure to adequate levels and does not improve UF.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pseudo A-V Block Secondary to Premature Nonpropagated His Bundle Depolarizations Documentation by His Bundle Electrocardiography
TL;DR: The term pseudo A-V block is used to describe the arrhythmia because there was no evidence of an intrinsic abnormality of A-S-V conduction and other unusual electrocardiographic phenomena may be explainable with intracardiac recordings of specialized conduction tissue potentials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Site of Heart Block in Acute Myocardial Infarction
Kenneth M. Rosen,Henry S. Loeb,Ruben Chuquimia,M. Ziad Sinno,Shahbudin H. Rahimtoola,Rolf M. Gunnar +5 more
TL;DR: Electrophysiologic observations coupled with previous clinical, anatomic, and pathologic findings suggest that the heart block in DMI is usually due to an ischemic lesion of the A-V node, whileheart block in AMI is due to necrosis involving both bundle branches.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationship of Pulmonary Artery to Left Ventricular Diastolic Pressures in Acute Myocardial Infarction
Shahbudin H. Rahimtoola,Henry S. Loeb,Ali Ehsani,M. Ziad Sinno,Ruben Chuquimia,Roshan Lal,Kenneth M. Rosen,Rolf M. Gunnar +7 more
TL;DR: PA pressures only provided reliable information about the level of pulmonary venous pressure, and therefore measurement of LVDP (pre-a and EDP) yielded information not only about pulmonary edema, but also about LV performance.
