[Impact of markedly nasal septal deviation on 24-hour rhythm Holter findings].
OBJECTIVES: This study aims to investigate any impact of nasal septal deviations on cardiac arrhythmias and heart rates by performing 24-hour rhythm Holter analysis before and after septoplasty accompanied by Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation (NOSE) scale.
PATIENTS AND METHODS: The study included 21 male patients (mean age 33 years; range 18 to 55 years) who underwent septoplasty between September 2013 and August 2014. Patients were performed 24-hour rhythm Holter electrocardiography analysis preoperatively and at postoperative third month. Supraventricular and ventricular extrasystoles were recorded pre- and postoperatively. Operation efficiency was measured with NOSE scale.
RESULTS: Of the 21 patients, ventricular and supraventricular extrasystoles were observed in seven patients (33%) in the preoperative period. Mean age of patients with arrhythmia (mean age 51 years; range 18 to 55 years) was statistically significant higher compared to patients without arrhythmia (mean age 30 years; range 23 to 55 years) (p=0.012). Extrasystoles decreased in seven patients in the postoperative period. Average, minimum, and maximum heart rates did not change statistically significant in the postoperative period.
CONCLUSION: The fact that septoplasty decreased arrhythmias indicates that nasal septum deviations may be associated with cardiac arrhythmias. Septoplasty had no effect on heart rates. Performing septoplasty in the early period may prevent future cardiac complications in indicated patients.
