Abstract:
Electrical storm is a cardiac emergency, defined as three or more hemodynamically unstable ventricular tachyarrythmias within 24 hours or ventricular tachycardia reoccurring within five minutes. The trigger for an electrical storm can be reversible like drug toxicity and electrolyte imbalances or can be irreversible like structural heart disease. Symptomatic patients can have chest pain, palpitations or syncopal episodes. We present a case of a gentleman in his 60s who was diagnosed with electrical storm which started as an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Uniqueness in the case lies in the unknown aetiology after all the investigations came back as normal and management of such cases is based on pacemakers and use of antiarrythmic agents to control and prevent further attacks.
