    Acute transient cardiomyopathy can occur after smoke exposure, even without carbon monoxide poisoning. This reversible heart dysfunction resolved quickly, highlighting a new potential cause of acute heart failure.

    Area of Science:

    • Cardiology
    • Toxicology
    • Emergency Medicine

    Background:

    • Transient myocardial contraction abnormalities are known to occur with non-cardiac illness and emotional stress.
    • These reversible abnormalities may involve mechanisms beyond reduced coronary blood flow.

    Observation:

    • A case of acute transient cardiomyopathy following smoke exposure is presented.
    • The patient experienced acute heart failure symptoms.

    Findings:

    • The heart failure resolved spontaneously within 4 days.
    • No evidence of carbon monoxide poisoning was found.
    • This represents a novel association between smoke exposure and acute heart failure.

    Implications:

    • Smoke inhalation, independent of carbon monoxide, may trigger acute cardiac dysfunction.

  • This finding expands the differential diagnosis for acute heart failure.
  • Further research into the mechanisms of smoke-induced cardiomyopathy is warranted.
