Overview

ECG findings associated with Sheehan's syndrome can include QT interval prolongation, Type-1 Brugada-like ECG pattern (due to adrenal crisis), findings suggestive of cardiac tamponade (sinus tachycardia, low voltage QRS, and electrical alternans), and dilated cardiomyopathy (multifactorial).
