Abstract
Ticagrelor is a potent, direct-acting, and reversible P2Y12‑adenosine diphosphate receptor blocker. It has a rapid onset of action and an intense and consistent platelet reactivity inhibition that has been demonstrated to be superior to clopidogrel in decreasing major adverse events in acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Although ticagrelor is well tolerated in ACS patients, it has side effects, such as dyspnea and bradyarrhythmia, as reported in the Platelet Inhibition and Patient Outcomes (PLATO) study. Furthermore, it was reported that ticagrelor's bradyarrhythmic potential was transient and not clinically significant beyond the acute initiation phase. Nor was there a difference in rates of syncope or need for pacemaker insertion during 30 days of follow-up. Here we report a case of ticagrelor associated with Cheyne-Stokes respiration and asystolic ventricular standstill in a patient with ACS who required resuscitation and insertion of a temporary pacemaker.
期刊介绍：
“Kardiologiya” (Cardiology) is a monthly scientific, peer-reviewed journal committed to both basic cardiovascular medicine and practical aspects of cardiology.
As the leader in its field, “Kardiologiya” provides original coverage of recent progress in cardiovascular medicine. We publish state-of-the-art articles integrating clinical and research activities in the fields of basic cardiovascular science and clinical cardiology, with a focus on emerging issues in cardiovascular disease. Our target audience spans a diversity of health care professionals and medical researchers working in cardiovascular medicine and related fields.
The principal language of the Journal is Russian, an additional language – English (title, authors’ information, abstract, keywords).
“Kardiologiya” is a peer-reviewed scientific journal. All articles are reviewed by scientists, who gained high international prestige in cardiovascular science and clinical cardiology. The Journal is currently cited and indexed in major Abstracting & Indexing databases: Web of Science, Medline and Scopus.
The Journal''s primary objectives
Contribute to raising the professional level of medical researchers, physicians and academic teachers.
Present the results of current research and clinical observations, explore the effectiveness of drug and non-drug treatments of heart disease, inform about new diagnostic techniques; discuss current trends and new advancements in clinical cardiology, contribute to continuing medical education, inform readers about results of Russian and international scientific forums;
Further improve the general quality of reviewing and editing of manuscripts submitted for publication;
Provide the widest possible dissemination of the published articles, among the global scientific community;
Extend distribution and indexing of scientific publications in major Abstracting & Indexing databases.
