Abstract

-Atrioventricular (AV) block in the neonatal period is a rare disorder. It is frequently associated with underlying structural congenital heart disease and maternal lupus. Presently described is premature baby who developed 2:1 AV block and congestive heart failure due to hypocalcemia. Dramatic clinical improvement was observed following treatment of intravenous 10% calcium gluconate. Therefore, it is suggested that serum calcium level of newborns with AV block and congestive heart failure be measured.

Özet

Atriyoventriküler blok yenidoğan döneminde nadirgörülür ve genellikle doğumsal kalp hastalığına ve anneninotoimmün hastalığına ikincil olarak gelişir. Bu yazıda, hipoklasemiyebağlı 2: 1 atriyoventriküler blok ve konjestif kalpyetersizliği gelişen bir prematüre bebek olgusu sunuldu.Olguda atriyoventriküler blok ve konjestif kalp yetersizliğibulguları intravenöz olarak verilen %10'luk kalsiyum glukonatinfüzyonunu takiben hızlı bir şekilde düzeldi. Bu nedenleatriyoventriküler blok ve kalp yetersizliği gelişen yenidoğanlardaserum kalsiyum düzeyinin ölçülmesini önermekteyiz.
