The heart suddenly and unexpectedly stops beating resulting in death within a short time period (generally within 1 h of symptom onset).

Atrioventricular block- MedGen UID:
- 13956
- •Concept ID:
- C0004245
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Delayed or lack of conduction of atrial depolarizations through the atrioventricular node to the ventricles.
Palpitations- MedGen UID:
- 14579
- •Concept ID:
- C0030252
- •
- Finding
A sensation that the heart is pounding or racing, which is a non-specific sign but may be a manifestation of arrhythmia.
Atrial arrhythmia- MedGen UID:
- 39317
- •Concept ID:
- C0085611
- •
- Pathologic Function
A type of supraventricular tachycardia in which the atria are the principal site of electrophysiologic disturbance.
First degree atrioventricular block- MedGen UID:
- 43215
- •Concept ID:
- C0085614
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Delay of conduction through the atrioventricular node, which is manifested as prolongation of the PR interval in the electrocardiogram (EKG). All atrial impulses reach the ventricles.
Absent P wave- MedGen UID:
- 324892
- •Concept ID:
- C1837847
- •
- Finding
The P wave that normally precedes each QRS complex by a fixed PR interval of 120 to 200 milliseconds is not present.
Waddling gait- MedGen UID:
- 66667
- •Concept ID:
- C0231712
- •
- Finding
Weakness of the hip girdle and upper thigh muscles, for instance in myopathies, leads to an instability of the pelvis on standing and walking. If the muscles extending the hip joint are affected, the posture in that joint becomes flexed and lumbar lordosis increases. The patients usually have difficulties standing up from a sitting position. Due to weakness in the gluteus medius muscle, the hip on the side of the swinging leg drops with each step (referred to as Trendelenburg sign). The gait appears waddling. The patients frequently attempt to counteract the dropping of the hip on the swinging side by bending the trunk towards the side which is in the stance phase (in the German language literature this is referred to as Duchenne sign). Similar gait patterns can be caused by orthopedic conditions when the origin and the insertion site of the gluteus medius muscle are closer to each other than normal, for instance due to a posttraumatic elevation of the trochanter or pseudarthrosis of the femoral neck.
Loss of ambulation- MedGen UID:
- 332305
- •Concept ID:
- C1836843
- •
- Finding
Inability to walk in a person who previous had the ability to walk.
Myopathy- MedGen UID:
- 10135
- •Concept ID:
- C0026848
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
A disorder of muscle unrelated to impairment of innervation or neuromuscular junction.
Elbow flexion contracture- MedGen UID:
- 98367
- •Concept ID:
- C0409338
- •
- Acquired Abnormality
An elbow contracture that limits the ability of the elbow joint to be extended (straightened), meaning that the elbow is fixed in an flexed (bent) position.
Achilles tendon contracture- MedGen UID:
- 98052
- •Concept ID:
- C0410264
- •
- Anatomical Abnormality
A contracture of the Achilles tendon.
Skeletal muscle atrophy- MedGen UID:
- 892680
- •Concept ID:
- C0541794
- •
- Pathologic Function
The presence of skeletal muscular atrophy (which is also known as amyotrophy).

- 326933
- •Concept ID:
- C1839653
- •
- Finding
Pectus excavatum- MedGen UID:
- 781174
- •Concept ID:
- C2051831
- •
- Finding
A defect of the chest wall characterized by a depression of the sternum, giving the chest ("pectus") a caved-in ("excavatum") appearance.
Type 1 muscle fiber atrophy- MedGen UID:
- 868775
- •Concept ID:
- C4023180
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Atrophy (wasting) affecting primary type 1 muscle fibers. This feature in general can only be observed on muscle biopsy.
Elevated circulating creatine kinase concentration- MedGen UID:
- 69128
- •Concept ID:
- C0241005
- •
- Finding
An elevation of the level of the enzyme creatine kinase (also known as creatine phosphokinase (CK; EC 2.7.3.2) in the blood. CK levels can be elevated in a number of clinical disorders such as myocardial infarction, rhabdomyolysis, and muscular dystrophy.
