Arrhythmia And Asthma Relationship

Abstract

Uncontrolled asthma can be complicated by cardiac conduction disturbances and arrhythmias. Medications used to treat asthma have been associated either directly or indirectly with cardiac rhythm disorders. There is limited data on the burden, predictors and impact of arrhythmia in hospitalized asthmatic children. Therefore, we conducted this study to examine these issues.
