Life-threatening cardiac arrhythmia and sudden death during electronic gaming: An international case series and systematic review
Rhythm Journal ^

Posted on 10/13/2022 7:56:10 PM PDT by MNDude

Twenty-two patients (18 in the case series and 4 via systematic review; aged 7–16 years; 19 males [86%]) were identified as having experienced suspected or proven ventricular arrhythmia during electronic gaming; 6 (27%) had experienced cardiac arrest, and 4 (18%) died suddenly. A proarrhythmic cardiac diagnosis was known in 7 (31%) patients before their gaming event and was established afterward in 12 (54%). Ten patients (45%) had catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia, 4 (18%) had long QT syndrome, 2 (9%) were post–congenital cardiac surgery, 2 (9%) had “idiopathic” ventricular fibrillation, and 1 (after Kawasaki disease) had coronary ischemia. In 3 patients (14%), including 2 who died, the diagnosis remains unknown. In 13 (59%) patients for whom the electronic game details were known, 8 (62%) were war games. Conclusion Electronic gaming can precipitate lethal cardiac arrhythmias in susceptible children. The incidence appears to be low, but syncope in this setting should be investigated thoroughly. In children with proarrhythmic cardiac conditions, electronic war games in particular are a potent arrhythmic trigger.

Yeah. It’s electronic gaming. Children shouldn’t get excited. It’s not normal.

22 youth out of how many youths that play computer games? This study is nothing more than a “study” to secure more government funds to continue studying this for the next 40 years.

vaxholes be like... “ha ha ha, gamers die all the time. I remember when I was a kid, and my gaming friends would just like.. die... right there on the couch with the controller in hand. Totally normal, you wacky conspiracy nuts”

They need to delineate when the cardiac events happened.

How many happen after Fauci’s funded Gain of Function hit the Air?

How many happened after specific subjects were inoculated w/toxic LipidNanoParticles delivering Toxic mRNA Spike Proteins that pimple out of human cells @ an unspecified quantity?

yeah, that's a study kill-ah confounder

How can the results of any cardiac study on any group after the COVID vax NOT be suspect?

Violent video games, guns and now weed are to be blamed for everything.

22 youth out of how many youths that play computer games?

70% of kids under 18 play video games, and 20% of kids under 18 are too young to play. It's about a 55/45 split boys to girls, so the 10% old enough to play, but don't, in general are not boys. It's fair to say that practically speaking, all boys play video games. ALL. Realistically it's impossible to draw any conclusions about the impact of video games on boys, because there's no boys who don't.

I’ll tell you the missing factor that is being ignored that is killing these kids, in combination with the vaccines : Energy Drinks

The caffeine spike plus vax clotting is too much for the young heart. Kids generally don’t like coffee but put high doses of caffeine in a sweet drink and they guzzle it.

They’ll study & release this, but not the autopsy data from those who were jabbed & died.

Right. /s

Of the 22 I note that a definitive diagnosis is present in all but three — catecholenergic polymorphic VT basically a malignant dysrhtymia relates to epinephrine and catecholamine release which is the fight or flight. Definitely would be induced with many video games. Familial prolonged qT. With adrenergic surge there is tachycardia and increased opportunity for q on T VT. None of this would be related to the effects of vaccination which appears to be brief and self limited myocarditis in < 1% of patients.

This is what happens above when people do not understand what an article says. The incidence of these diseases tracks with the population and it makes sense that there would be this number of deaths in this population. And it cannot have anything to do with the vaccination. All is the conga lone above should educate themselves on the pathologies described. I cannot wait to hear the bizarre linkage that attempts to paint this as vaccination induced.

Surely some will try it, but will like ridiculous on pronouncing fact where none exist.
