Overview
Pathologic bradycardias are caused by disorders of impulse generation (impaired automaticity at SA node), impulse conduction (heart block), or escape pacemakers and rhythms. Bradycardia can be underlain by several causes, which are best divided into cardiac and non-cardiac causes or based on the location of the abnormality.
Causes
- Drugs:
- Agalsidase beta
- Ambenonium
- Aprotinin
- Amobarbital sodium
- Beractant
- Bromocriptine
- Caspofungin acetate
- Calcium gluconate
- Ceritinib
- Cosyntropin
- Crizotinib
- Dolasetron mesylate
- Fosphenytoin sodium
- Fosaprepitant
- Lanreotide
- Lorcaserin
- Meropenem
- Metipranolol
- Nalmefene
- Pasireotide
- Pergolide
- Pilocarpine
- Poractant Alfa
- Prednisolone
- Secobarbital sodium
- Sodium aurothiomalate
- Trichophyton mentagrophytes and trichophyton rubrum
- vandetanib
Life Threatening Causes
Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated.
- Acute coronary syndrome
- Acute myocardial infarction
- Acute renal failure
- Acute respiratory failure
- Acute rheumatic fever
- Bacterial endocarditis
- Beta blocker overdose
- Carbamate poisoning
- Cervical spine injury
- Diabetic ketoacidosis
- Digitalis toxicity
- Drowning
- Electric shock
- Electrolyte imbalance
- Hypoglycemia
- Increased intracranial pressure
- Lateral medullary syndrome
- Lily of the valley poisoning
- Lithium toxicity
- Myocardial infarction
- Myocardial rupture
- Myocarditis
- Nerve agent poisoning e.g. sarin
- NSTEMI
- Organophosphate poisoning
- Parathion poisoning
- Poisonous spider bites
- Pulmonary embolism
- Rabies
- Sepsis
- Septic shock
- Severe brain injury
- Severe hypothermia
- STEMI
