Abstract
The rate of accidents severe enough to require a roentgen examination was investigated in a series of patients with episodic cardiac arrhythmia of types causing Adams-Stokes'' syndrome. The accident rate was doubled compared with controls without known Adams-Stokes'' syndrome but the associated increase in fracture rate was not significant.Keywords
