Effectiveness of bretylium tosylate against refractory ventricular arrhythmias.
Thirty patients with ventricular tachyarrhythmias, which had not responded to intensive therapy with up to five antiarrhythmic drugs, were treated with bretylium tosylate. All patients had recurrenit ventricular tachycardia, and 12 had repeated episodes of ventricular fibrillation. In 17 patients the arrhythmias followed acute myocardial infarction. Bretylium was administered intramuscularly or...
متن کاملBretylium tosylate in treatment of refractory ventricular arrhythmias complicating myocardial infarction.
In IO patients with severe myocardial infarction and left ventricular failure, bretylium tosylate was used in the treatment of ventricular arrhythmias which had proved refractory to lignocaine and procainamide; 6 cases had also failed to respond to phenytoin. In 7 patients stable sinus rhythm was achieved and 5 of these survived to leave hospital. For the period during which bretylium was used,...
متن کاملVentricular Arrhythmias.
Ventricular tachycardia (VT) is the most common form of wide complex tachycardia and is associated with a high mortality rate. Electrocardiographic analysis remains paramount in diagnosis and helps to direct therapy. Antiarrhythmic agents, although effective in reducing arrhythmia burden, have never demonstrated a mortality benefit. The implantable cardioverter-defibrillator aids not only in th...
متن کاملPrevention of chronic canine ventricular tachyarrhythmias with bretylium tosylate.
The ability of chronic bretylium tosylate treatment to prevent the induction of ventricular tachycardia was assessed in the conscious dog subjected to serial programmed ventricular stimulation on days 3-6 after acute myocardial infarction. In 34 untreated control dogs, programmed ventricular stimulation produced nonsustained ventricular tachycardia in 11 dogs (32%), sustained ventricular tachyc...

Gillis, MD ABSRACT: Sex-specific differences in the epidemiology, pathophysiology, clinical presentation, clinical treatment, and clinical outcomes of atrial fibrillation (AF), sustained ventricular arrhythmias, and sudden cardiac death are recognized. Sex hormones cause differences in cardiac ele...
