Bradycardia‐Associated Syncope in 7 Boxers with Ventricular Tachycardia (2002–2005)

Abstract: Background: Syncope is a recognized problem in Boxers and often is the result of rapid ventricular tachycardia (VT). Affected dogs may have echocardiographic evidence of dilated cardiomyopathy, but frequently have normal echocardiograms. Although VT is probably the most common cause of syncope in Boxers, neurocardiogenic bradycardia can also occur.Objective: We describe 7 Boxers with comorbid VT and neurocardiogenic bradycardia, wherein the syncope was secondary to bradycardia rather than VT.Animals: Seven Box… Show more

“…Neurally-mediated collapse has also been documented in boxer dogs with frequent ventricular ectopy on ambulatory electrocardiogram (AECG) recordings (Thomason et al 2008). In humans, multiple terms are used to describe this inappropriate heart rate and blood pressure response to a stimulus, including vasovagal syncope, neurocardiogenic reflex and neurocardiogenic bradycardia (Chen-Scarabelli & Scarabelli 2004).…”

“…No caso apresentado, apesar do animal apresentar histórico de arritmia ventricular com presença de complexos ventriculares prematuros, nenhum registro eletrocardiográfico revelou taquicardia ventricular paroxística e a FC do animal era estável (100-120 bpm). Somente durante a crise de síncope revelava-se a presença de bradicardia pronunciada, assim como relatado em cães da raça Boxer que apresentavam histórico de síncope associada à bradicardia (THOMASON et al, 2008). E assim como neste relato, os cães Boxers apresentavam episódios de taquicardia ventricular mas que não estavam associados aos episódios de síncope (THOMASON et al, 2008).…”

E assim como neste relato, os cães Boxers apresentavam episódios de taquicardia ventricular mas que não estavam associados aos episódios de síncope (THOMASON et al, 2008). A maior causa de síncope em humanos é a sínco-pe neurocardiogênica e ocorre em cerca de 37% das pessoas ao longo da vida (GANZEBOOM et al, 2006).…”
