Cardiac motion in total electrical alternans

JJ Rozanski and M Kleinfeld

Gross pendular motion of the heart at half the heart rate was observed during cardiac catheterization and pericardiotomy in a patient with massive pericardial effusion and electrical alternans in the electrocardiogram. These observations support the hypothesis that total electrical alternans in pericardial effusion is a result of alternate change in cardiac position.
