A Cured Case of Adams-Stokes Syndrome with Frequent Occurrence during about 5 Days

Abstract

Authors recorded a clinical details of Adams-Stokes syndrome in 76 aged man, occurring frequently and disappearing with recovery after some 5 days from the onset. Electrocardiogram showed complete auriculoventricular block. During this time, ventricular asystole was observed and the patient was recovered from faintness soon after the reaction of ventricular systole. Judging from his anamnesis, complete auriculoventricular block in this case may be associated with the hypertensive cardiovascular disturbances.
