Aspects of the benign extrasystolic arrhythmia in the child and teenager with tetany
Journal Title: Journal of Experimental and Molecular Biology - Year 2018, Vol 19, Issue 1
Abstract
The tetany in children represents a state of pathological hyperexcitability of the central and peripheral nervous system. The aim of this study is to present aspects of the benign extrasystolic arrhythmia in the children and teenagers with tetany, starting from the assumption that electrolyte imbalances of calcium and magnesium ions might be the cause of these dysrhythmias. The patients with hypocalcemic and hypomagnesemic tetany had the greatest share, followed by the patients with normocalcemic and normomagnesemic tetany, with no statistically significant difference between the atrial, respectively ventricular extrasystoles in any of the forms of tetany. The percentage of the occurrence of extrasystoles in the patients with latent tetany was higher than in the patients with manifest tetany, with a significant statistical difference between the types of extrasystoles, in both types of tetany.
