摘要
We report the case of a 2.5 month-old infant with cyanotic breath-holding spells, loss of consciousness and seizures. Prolonged asystole up to 70 s despite cardiopulmonary resuscitation was documented by 24 hour Holler monitoring An epicardial pacemaker was implanted followed by no further loss of consciousness and seizures during spells in a six month follow-up period.
