Abstract
A 58-year-old male underwent ambulatory ECG monitoring with continuous patch monitoring (Zio XT Patch) for the complaint of episodic dyspnea. In the period of monitoring the patient suffered sudden cardiac death (SCD) with continuous ECG recording showing pronounced ST segment elevations followed by bradycardia and death. This report highlights the growing potential of continuous ST segment monitoring, and features the infrequent entity of ischemic electromechanical dissociation with bradyarrhythmia as a cause of SCD.
