Background: The occurrence of ventricular tachyarrhythmias seems to follow circadian, daily, and seasonal distributions. Our aim is to identify potential temporal patterns of electrical storm (ES), in which a cluster of ventricular tachycardias or ventricular fibrillation, negatively affects short- and long-term survival.
Methods And Results: The TEMPEST study (Circannual Pattern and Temperature-Related Incidence of Electrical Storm) is a patient-level, pooled analysis of previously published data sets.
A case of sudden increase in rate of an implanted ventricular-inhibited pacemaker is reported. Testing of the unit at room temperature revealed the measurements to be entirely within normal limits. Subsequent electrical testing at a temperature of 38 degrees C confirmed the abrupt increase in rate of the unit.
