title: [Arrhythmia in patients after heart transplantation].
abstract: Holter monitoring was performed in 15 patients surviving over 3 months after homotopic cardiac transplantation. The frequency and types of arrhythmias occurring in the grafted innervated heart were studied according to its postoperative period duration. The follow-up lasted 3 to 29 months. Supraventricular arrhythmias were detected in 80%, whereas ventricular ones were found in 86.7%. Ventricular arrhythmias accompanied chronic graft rejection in 2 patients. It was ascertained that Holter monitoring was of greater diagnostic value than routine ECG recording. Innervation is not essential in the occurrence of cardiac arrhythmias.
