title: Arrhythmia during oral surgery: fascicular blocks in the cardiac conducting system.
abstract: Two hundred and four patients were monitored during oral surgery using three surface e.c.g. leads simultaneously. In nine patients, sustained supraventricular tachycardia was observed during surgical stimulation. The role of sympathetic stimulation and halothane anaesthesia in producing arrhythmia is discussed.
