Overview
Sudden cardiac arrest may be caused by coronary artery abnormality such as coronary atherosclerosis, acute MI, coronary artery embolism, coronary arteritis , hypertrophy of myocardium such as HCM, hypertensive heart disease, primary or secondary pulmonary hypertension , myocardial disease such as ischemic cardiomyopathy, non-ischemic cardiomyopathy, myocarditis ,valvular heart disease such as aortic stenosis, aortic insufficiency, mitral valve prolapse, endocarditis , congenital heart disease such as congenital septal defect with eisenmenger physiology , abnormality in conducting system such as Wolf-Parkinson-White syndrome , electrical instability such as (CPVT, LQTS)
Causes
Sudden cardiac arrest may be caused by :
- Coronary artery abnormality such as coronary atherosclerosis, acute MI, coronary artery embolism, coronary arteritis[1][2]
- Hypertrophy of myocardium such as HCM, hypertensive heart disease, primary or secondary pulmonary hypertension
- Myocardial disease such as ischemic cardiomyopathy, non-ischemic cardiomyopathy, myocarditis[3]
- Valvular heart disease such as aortic stenosis,aortic insufficiency, mitral valve prolapse, endocarditis [4]
- Congenital heart disease such as congenital septal defect with Eisenmenger physiology[5]
- Abnormality in conducting system such as Wolf-Parkinson-White syndrome
- Electrical instability such as (CPVT, LQTS)
- Causes of acquired Long QT syndrome include the following:
- Antiarrhythmic agents
- Class IA: quinidine, procainamide, N-acetyl procainamide, disopyramide
- Class III: amiodarone, low risk of torsade de points
- Class IV: bepridil,mibefradil
- Antihistamines
- Terfenadine
- Astemizole
- Antimicrobials
- Erythromycin
- Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole
- Clarithromycin
- Cotzimoxazole
- Azithromycin
- Ketoconazole
- Pentamidine
- Chloroquine
- Gastrointestinal
- Cisapride
- Liquid protein diets
- Anorexia nervosa
- Lipid-lowering
- Probucol
- Psychotropic agents
- Tricyclic and tetracycline antidepressants
- Haloperidol
- Phenothiazines
- Risperidone
- Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors
- Other agents
- Organophosphates
- Diuretics (reduced K+, Mg2+)
- Vasopressin (severe bradycardia)
- Chloral hydrate amantadine
- Electrolyte abnormalities
- Hypokalemia
- Hypomagnesemia
- Hypocalcemia
