Left ventricular failure with labetalol.
A patient treated for hypertension with labetalol developed left ventricular failure. When the drug was withdrawn and the BP controlled with 2 other agents, the signs of heart failure regressed. The ill effects in this case could have been because the beta-blocking effects of labetalol are 4 to 6 times greater than the alpha-blocking effects. Caution should be exercised when prescribing this dr...
متن کاملChronic Left Ventricular Heart Failure
The effect of the vasodilator prazosin vs placebo on exercise duration until marked dyspnea, and on left ventricular function measured by echocardiography, was evaluated in a double-blind, randomized study in 24 patients with chronic left ventricular failure despite digitalis and diuretic therapy. Compared with the double-blind placebo, prazosin reduced resting systolic and diastolic blood pres...
متن کاملVasodilator therapy for chronic left ventricular failure.
The effects of chronic oral vasodilator therapy were studied in a group of patients with refractory congestive heart failure. Fifteen patients were treated acutely with intravenous sodium nitroprusside and sublingual isosorbide dinitrate. After continuous therapy with nitroprusside and isosorbide dinitrate for up to 72 hours the patients were then placed on isosorbide dinitrate and oral phenoxy...
متن کاملLeft ventricular function following coronary bypass surgery.
The effect of coronary artery bypass grafts on left ventricular performance was evaluated by analyzing preoperative (preop) and postoperative (postop) biplane left ventriculograms of 37 patients who were restudied at a mean of 13 months after operation. Eighty-two percent of the grafts were patent. Segmental wall shortening and segmental shortening velocities (mea Vcf) in the anterior, inferior...
متن کاملLatest insights in therapeutic options for systemic right ventricular failure: a comparison with left ventricular failure.
The number of adult patients with a systemic right ventricle (RV) is steadily increasing. Survival is relatively good in these patients, but deterioration of the systemic RV seems inevitable. Although therapeutic options for patients with LV failure are well established, their role in patients with systemic RV failure is often undefined. To appreciate the potency of LV failure therapy in patien...
