AB  - Chronic hyperglycaemia of Type 2 diabetes mellitus causes long term damage to 
      heart resulting in coronary artery disease (CAD), myocardial infarction (MI), 
      congestive heart failure (CHF), and sudden death from arrhythmias. AIMS: To study 
      the prevalence of different types of arrhythmias in T2DM, particularly in 
      association with Cardiac Autonomic Neuropathy (CAN). METHODS: A cross-sectional 
      study including 100 patients of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) presenting with 
      cardiac arrhythmias, was done at our hospital over 2 years. Detailed history 
      along with physical examination and tests for CAN were done. Routine 
      investigations along with echocardiography, stress test, Holter monitoring were 
      done. RESULTS: Sinus Tachycardia (ST) was the commonest arrhythmia, found in 32% 
      of patients. 20% had Complete Heart Block (CHB), 15% had Sinus Bradycardia (SB), 
      and 15% had Atrial Fibrillation (AF). Ventricular Premature Complex (VPC) was 
      found in 10% and 3% had Atrial Premature Complex (APC). 3% had first degree AV 
      block, whereas 1% had Paroxysmal Supra Ventricular Tachycardia (PSVT), and 
      another 1% had Ventricular Tachycardia (VT). Poorly controlled diabetes and 
      co-morbidities was associated with higher incidence of arrhythmias. 62% of 
      patients had prolonged QTc, majority of which had CAN. Most of the patients 
      responded to standard therapy.
