[Bradyarrythmias in acute coronary syndromes].

In up to 30-40% of the cases acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is complicated by cardiac arrhythmias. The latter can be benign or malignant and mainly occur during the first 24 hours after myocardial infarction. Ischemia time being the key factor, arrythmias decreased dramatically since the implementation of accelerated reperfusion strategies. Bradyarrhythmias are often benign and self-limiting and are less frequent than tachyarrhythmias but can sometimes require specific treatment. The objective of this article is to provide an update on bradycardia and conduction system disorders occurring during ACS and their management.
