ACE İnhibitörüne Bağlı Öksürük Senkopu

Senkop, serebral perfüzyonun aniden geçici olarak düşmesiyle ortaya çıkan geçici bilinç kaybı olarak tanımlanır. Obstrüktif akciğer hastalığı olan orta yaşlı obez erkeklerde öksürüğe bağlı senkop klasik olarak görülmektedir. Anjiyotensin konverting enzim (ACE) inhibitörü kullanan hastalarda bu ilacın yan etkisi olarak kalıcı kuru öksürük görülebilmektedir. Hipertansiyon tedavisi için ACE inhibitörü kullanan yetmiş yaşındaki erkek hasta senkop şikayeti ile kliniğe kabul edildi. Elektroensefalografi kaydı sırasında bir öksürük nöbeti gelişti ve süresi 10 saniye olan subkortikal benzeri epileptiform deşarjlar görüldü. Hastanın kullandığı ACE inhibitörü kalsiyum kanal blokörleri ile değiştirildiğinde takip periyodunda herhangi bir komplikasyona rastlanmadı.

Cough Syncope due to ACE Inhibitor

Syncope is defined as a transient loss of consciousness due to sudden temporary decline in cerebral perfusion. Cough syncope is classically seen in middle aged obese men with obstructive pulmonary disease. In patients that use Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, a dry persistent cough can emerge due to the side effects of this medication. Seventy years old male patient that use ACE inhibitor for hypertension accepted to the clinic with the complaint of syncope. A bout of coughing has developed during electroencephalography recording and 10 seconds in duration of subcortical like epileptiform discharges were viewed. The ACE inhibitor the patient was receiving was replaced with calcium channel blocker and no complaint was observed during the follow up period.
