title: [Status of the heart conduction system in patients with epileptic seizures].
abstract: Diagnostic computed transesophageal pacing was used to examine 45 patients with epileptic seizures of different genesis. Clinically, they had no signs of cardiac rhythm disturbances. 28 patients with heart arrhythmias and 30 practically healthy subjects served as control groups. 64.44% of the patients with epileptic seizures manifested different types of the clinically existing pathology in the conduction system of the heart. Among the practically healthy subjects, the analogous disorders accounted for 10%; only single premature heart beats were recorded during the examination. 60.71% of the control group patients with heart arrhythmias subjected to ECG studies demonstrated alterations of the epileptic type. It is concluded that there is a close relationship between the epileptic process and pathology of the conduction system of the heart.
