May warrant ECG monitoring in acute CNS events; leaves open whether sympathetic blockade improves outcomes.
Highlights the historical recognition and pathophysiological link between acute CNS disease and cardiac arrhythmias, emphasizing the role of the sympathetic nervous system.
Murray Grossman (1976) conducted a review in Acute central nervous system disease and cardiac arrhythmias. Acute central nervous system disease was evaluated. Historical reports and experimental studies suggest that acute central nervous system disease is associated with electrocardiographic abnormalities and cardiac arrhythmias mediated by the sympathetic nervous system.
