A 65 year old woman with hypertension and permanent atrial fibrillation suffered 2 brief syncopal episodes. The Holter monitoring revealed an episode of ventricular fibrillation occurring during sleep. Surprisingly, ventricular fibriilation ceased spontaneously after 1.16 minute; an asystolic pause of 1,16 minutes then ensued, followed by resumption of a supraventricular rhythm.

Abstract
A 65 year old woman with hypertension and permanent atrial fibrillation suffered 2 brief syncopal episodes. The Holter monitoring revealed an episode of ventricular fibrillation occurring during sleep. Surprisingly, ventricular fibriilation ceased spontaneously after 1.16 minute; an asystolic pause of 1,16 minutes then ensued, followed by resumption of a supraventricular rhythm.File in questo prodotto:
