Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Chest pain that is associated with hyperventilation is often considered to be benign and noncardiac in nature. While not commonly recognized, hyperventilation can provoke coronary vasospasm. We report a man who presented with hyperventilation and developed myocardial infarction. In the setting of hyperventilation, chest pain and ST segment elevation, coronary vasospasm must be considered.
