is precordial catch syndrome common?
534934
Precordial catch syndrome (Texidor's Twinge) is a non-serious condition in which there are sharp stabbing pains in the chest. It is a common, but underrecognized cause of benign chest pain in children and adolescents. The pathophysiology of the syndrome is unknown.

For road-race guys a dual can set-up in series to cure the issue. Not all catch cans are the same. Some work, some don't, some make the problems worse. If you have a catch can but never have oil in it then it's not working at all.

People with WPW syndrome are born with an extra electrical pathway that changes the way these signals travel. Symptoms of the arrhythmia that occur in WPW syndrome may include palpitations, chest pain or tightness, shortness of breath, dizziness, or faintness. Some people experience few to no symptoms.

Background: Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is the most common primary valvular abnormality in a young population. In some individuals, MVP is silent or associated with palpitations, dizziness, chest pain, and abnormal electrocardiogram (ECG) repolarization with or without ventricular arrhythmias.

Atrioventricular nodal reentry tachycardia (AVNRT) is the most common type of supraventricular tachycardia. Episodes often start and end suddenly, and occur because of a reentrant circuit — also called an accessory pathway — located in or near the AV node that causes the heart to beat prematurely.

Although not a dangerous finding in and of itself, axis deviation may be an indication of a serious underlying condition. A careful history to elicit acute cardiac injury is therefore of utmost importance.

How to recognize electrical and mechanical capture. Electrical capture will result in a QRS complex with a T wave after each pacer spike. Mechanical capture will cause palpable peripheral pulses and usually a noticeable improvement in patient condition.

Inverted T-waves in the right precordial leads (V1-3) are a normal finding in children, representing the dominance of right ventricular forces. Persistent Juvenile T-wave Pattern. T-wave inversions in the right precordial leads may persist into adulthood and are most commonly seen in young Afro-Caribbean women.

Pregnancy may predispose to and exacerbate symptoms of paroxysmal SVT. Several case reports8 and a retrospective study of 60 patients with documented SVT3 showed pregnancy to be associated with both an increased risk, and an exacerbation of symptoms.

The standard ECG has 12 leads. Six of the leads are considered “limb leads” because they are placed on the arms and/or legs of the individual. The other six leads are considered “precordial leads” because they are placed on the torso (precordium).

Long QT syndrome is an inherited heart rhythm problem where the heart muscle takes longer than normal to recharge between beats. In some people, this can cause fainting or fits (seizures).

In rare cases, WPW can lead to cardiac arrest; however, most people with WPW are at low risk of this catastrophe.

Rarely, when accompanied by heart disease, frequent premature contractions can lead to chaotic, dangerous heart rhythms and possibly sudden cardiac death.

A premature heartbeat can also sometimes lead to arrhythmia. Premature heartbeats feel like your heart has skipped a beat. In reality, your normal heart rhythm has been interrupted by a too-soon beat, and you're experiencing an extra beat between two normal heartbeats.

A prolonged PR interval indicates delayed conduction of the sinoatrial, or SA, nodal impulse to the ventricles and is called first-degree AV block. A short PR interval can be seen when the AV node delay is bypassed, such as in Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome or Lown-Ganong-Levine syndrome.

Mitral valve prolapse (MVP)—a common condition that's rarely serious—might boost heart patients' risk for sudden cardiac death (SCD), researchers reported in the BMJ journal Heart this week.

Yes, too, if you have: Palpitations coming in groups of three or more, or if they keep happening. High cholesterol, diabetes, or high blood pressure -- you're at risk for heart disease.
