Resumen
CARRILLO ESPER, Raúl et al. Electrocardiographic alterations in subarachnoid hemorrhage. Rev. Fac. Med. (Méx.) [online]. 2011, vol.54, n.1, pp.41-45. ISSN 2448-4865.
Electrocardiographic (EGC) changes have been frequently observed in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). The most frequent anomalies reported are prolonged of the QT interval, negative T waves, elevation or inversion of the ST segment and U wave. T wave inversion associated to QT interval prolongation is related to alterations in ventricular contraction indicating that echocardiographic screening is required. We report the case of a patient with SAH secondary to intracranial aneurism rupture who showed electrocardiographic changes, emphasizing the pathogenesis of the latter and the impact they have in both clinical manifestations and evolution.
