Abstract

On May 2012 the city of Ferrara and the surrounding region were hit by several earthquakes. We had the chance to observe the behavior of one thalassemic heart during the shocks, because of a 24-h electrocardiogram recording had been put in place a few hours before the shocks.
Keywords: thalassemia; arrhythmias; iron overload; earthquake thalassemia; arrhythmias; iron overload; earthquake
