SEATTLE Syncope and seizures went unrecognized as warning signs of
impending sudden cardiac arrest in children and young adults, based on the
results of a retrospective survey of 20 families whose children had these
antecedent events.
Parental reports showed that the children fainted or had a seizure without
apparent reason an average of three times before sudden cardiac arrest
(SCA), according to survey results presented at the annual meeting of the
North American Primary Care Research Group.
Half of them did not receive an electrocardiogram (ECG) as part of their
medical evaluation for these events, either because they did not see a
provider or because they saw a provider but the test was not done. Yet,
some of this group had cardiac pathologies that might have been detected
by the test.
"Syncope and unexplained seizure activity remain unrecognized for the most
part as potential warning signs of intrinsic cardiac disorders that may
lead to sudden cardiac arrest," said presenting investigator Dr. Jonathan
A. Drezner, a family physician specializing in sports medicine at the
University of Washington, Seattle, and team physician for the Seattle
Seahawks and University of Washington Huskies.
