title: [Sudden death during holter monitoring in later phase of hospitalization after myocardial infarction. A case report].
abstract: A patient died suddenly during Holter monitoring 19 days after admission for myocardial infarction. Death occurred while the patient was straining at stools. Cardiac arrest, preceded by a short lasting sinus tachycardia, was brought about by some late ectopic ventricular beats, which triggered a fast ventricular tachycardia promptly into ventricular fibrillation.
