Cite This Study
Jiménez et al. (2021) conducted a case report in Manifest pre-excitation (n=1). Peripheral vein cannulation was evaluated on Neurally-mediated vagotonic reaction. A 19-year-old asymptomatic male athlete with manifest pre-excitation experienced a neurally-mediated vagotonic reaction during preprocedural peripheral vein cannulation.
