Continuous left stellate ganglion block during VT ablation to slow VT and improve ablation outcome
Anno:
2024
Introduction: Perioperative management of advanced patients with indication to ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation is complex. A PAINESD score ≥ 15 was proposed to identify those who might benefit from pre-emptive mechanical cardiopulmonary support (MCS). We present a case successfully managed with continuous percutaneous left stellate ganglion block (C-PLSGB). Case:…
Percutaneous left stellate ganglion block to increase ventricular fibrillation threshold and defibrillation success rate in acute fulminant myocarditis with electrical storm
Anno:
2024
Introduction: Acute fulminant myocarditis represents a predisposing substrate for life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias (VAs). Percutaneous left stellate ganglion block (PLSGB) usage has been reported for the prevention of recurrent VAs, but clinical data on its acute effect on ongoing ventricular fibrillation (VF) are missing. Case: A 57-years-old man suffering gastroenteritis…
Ultrasound guided stellate ganglion block beyond electrical storm: expanding clinical indications
Anno:
2024
Background: Percutaneous stellate ganglion block (PSGB) is recommended by the latest American as well as European guidelines for patients with drug and eventually ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation refractory ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) in form of electrical storm (ES). Yet, due to the strong antiarrhythmic potential, combined with the good safety…
