The past medical history was remarkable for hypercholesterolemia and essential hypertension. The patient was not treated with any negative chronotropic drug. At the admission, the patient’s blood pressure was 90/60 mmHg, she had bradycardia (42/minute), and hypothermia (33ºC). Electrocardiogram (ECG) showed sinus bradycardia, 1st grade atrioventricular block, long corrected QT interval, and Osborn waves at the end of QRS complexes ( Figure 1 A , arrowheads). Accordingly, these positive notching deflections were best seen in lateral precordial leads and disappeared after warming the patient to 36ºC ( Figure 1B ). The bradycardia, atrioventricular block, and QT prolongation were also resolved ( Figure 1 B ). During the inward stay, head computed tomography scan, 24-hour Holter, and laboratory analysis were unremarkable for pathological findings. Transthoracic echocardiogram only revealed degenerative aortic and mitral valve changes. This case is illustrative of hypothermia-induced electrocardiographic changes, namely prolongation of the PR, RR and QT intervals and particularly the presence of Osborn Waves.1Sociedade Brasileira de CardiologiaRepositório da Universidade de LisboaMarques, AnaCaldeira, DanielBriosa, AlexandraJoão, IsabelPereira, Hélder2020-07-21T12:39:19Z2020-062020-06-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10451/44087engArquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia, 114(6), 1076-10770066-782X10.36660/abc.202000811678-4170info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-11-08T16:44:43Zoai:repositorio.ul.pt:10451/44087Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T21:56:41.605898Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
