Tooth extractions and sick sinus syndrome.

Y Yoshimura, I Hirose, K Ihara

    International Journal of Oral Surgery
    |June 1, 1980
    PubMed
    Summary

    Dental extractions for patients with sick sinus syndrome (SSS) require careful management. Patients on medication or with pacemakers can undergo safe tooth extraction with appropriate cardiac monitoring and interventions.

    Area of Science:

    • Cardiology
    • Dentistry
    • Medical Devices

    Background:

    • Sick sinus syndrome (SSS) poses challenges for dental procedures due to potential cardiac complications.
    • Managing patients with SSS undergoing tooth extraction requires specialized protocols.

    Observation:

    • Four SSS patients underwent dental extractions, with two managed medically and two with cardiac pacemakers.
    • Electrocardiographic (ECG) monitoring was crucial during and after the procedures.

    Findings:

    • Medically managed patients showed varied ECG responses, including normal sinus rhythm post-isoproterenol or bradycardia-tachycardia after extraction.
    • Pacemaker-dependent patients exhibited pacemaker-controlled rhythms, with some sinus node activity during anesthesia and extraction.

    Implications:

    • Establishes a guideline for safe dental extractions in SSS patients.
    • Highlights the importance of pre-procedural cardiac assessment and intraoperative monitoring.
    • Demonstrates successful management strategies for SSS patients in dental settings.
