Outcomes of empiric antiarrhythmic drug therapy for ventricular tachyarrhythmias: a comparison of amiodarone and sotalol

The aim of this study is to review the long-term outcomes of a series of patients with ventricular tachyarrhythmias who commenced empiric treatment with either amiodarone or sotalol in the period before electrophysiologic studies were used routinely at our institution. We compared these two class III dru...

Effects of perfusion of the infarct-related artery on risk markers of life-threatening arrhytmias in patients with prior myocardial infarction

Programmed electrical stimulation (PES), angiographic studies, Holter recording, 12-lead ECG and signal averaged ECG (SAECG, n=63) were performed in 109 consecutive patients with a prior Q-wave myocardial infarction (MI). Sixty-five patients (59 por cento) had TMI-class ) or 1 antegrade perfusion without...

A single procedure effectively treats concurrent atrioventricular reciprocating tachycardia and AV node reentry tachycardia

We report our experience regarding definitive treatment for concurrent atrioventricular reciprocating and AV node reentry tachycardia in 184 consecutive patients undergoing accessory connection ablation. 18 patients also had inducible sustained AV node reentry tachycardia. Sixteen out of 18 patients unde...

Variantes electrofisiológicas de la taquicardia incesante
Electrophysiological variations of incesant tachycardia

Rev. chil. cardiol; 14 (2), 1995
La taquicardia incesante puede ser causada por diferentes mecanismos electrofisiológicos. Desde 1986, hemos estudiado 13 pacientes con taquicardia incesante, 9 hombres y 4 mujeres (edad promedio 35a). Diez pacientes habían recibido múltiples antiarrítmicos y 4 habían desarrollado insuficiencia cardÃ...

Menor sensibilidad al efecto taquicardizante inducido por estimulación betaadrenérgica en pacientes con síncope neurocardiogénico
Decreased sensitivity to the tachycardial effect induced by beta adrenergic stimulation in patients with neurocardiogenic syncope

Rev. chil. cardiol; 14 (2), 1995
Tradicionalmente se ha postulado una mayor sensibilidad miocárdica a las catecolaminas como parte del mecánismo desencadenante del síncope neurocardiogénico (SNC). Hemos evaluado la hipótesis de que, contrariamente a lo aceptado, estos pacientes tienen una menor sensibilidad al efecto taquicardizant...

Esmolol y alfentanil para control de la taquicardia e hipertensión inducidas por intubación endotraqueal
Esmolol and alfentanil for control of tachycardia and hypertension induced by endotracheal intubation

Rev. mex. anestesiol; 18 (2), 1995
Se realizó un estudio experiemtal comparativo para determinar la eficacia del esmolol y afentanil en el control de la tensión arterial y la frecuencia cardiaca durante la laringoscopía e intubación en 30 pacientes sometidos a cirugía electiva bajo anestesia general inhalatoria. Previamente a la lari...
