⚡ TL;DR(Too Long; Didn't Read)

In this study, we report an intensive care unit patient who developed atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT), which is the most common type of reentrant supraventricular tachycardia, and presyncopal attack during Peg-IFN and ribavirin therapy.

Peg-IFN ve ribavirin tedavisinin önemli etkilerinin yanında ateş, halsizlik, heyecan, huzursuzluk, nötropeni ve trombositopeni gibi bir çok yan etki görülebilir. Ayrıca kardiyak aritmiler ve senkop gibi nadir olaylar da Peg-IFN tedavisine bağlı gelişebilir. Bizler bu çalışmada Peg-IFN ve ribavirin tedavisi sırasında presenkop atağı ve reenteran taşikardilerin en sık formu olan atriyoventriküler nodal reenteran taşikardi gelişen bir yoğun bakım hastasını sunuyoruz.
