Atropine sulfate may be effective to recover the unstable hemodynamics in coronary artery spasms related to atrial fibrillation ablation procedures

Abstract

Coronary artery spasms related to atrial fibrillation ablation procedures could cause lethal ventricular fibrillation or cardiopulmonary arrest. It may be useful to try intravenous atropine sulfate while preparing urgent coronary artery angiography in hemodynamically unstable coronary artery spasms cases to prevent development of the lethal arrhythmias.
