Letter: Beta-adrenergic blocking agents in patients with renal failure.
SIR,-Drs. Priscilla Kincaid-Smith and A. S. P. Hua are disturbed (24 August, p. 520) by our suggestion that beta-adrenergic blocking agents should not be used in patients with moderately severe renal failure (27 April, p. 193). They refer to a previous publication' to show that temporary deterioration in renal function in such patients may occur with the introduction of any hypotensive drug. Th...

متن کاملBeta-adrenergic blocking agents in heart failure.
Cardiac dysfunction in heart failure is widely recognized as a progressive process, regardless of the clinical signs and symptoms. An increase in cardiac sympathetic drive is one of the earliest neurohormonal responses occurring in patients with heart failure and may be one of the major causes of the progressive remodeling leading to the decline in myocardial function, and responsible for the p...
متن کاملThe pharmacology of beta-adrenergic blocking agents.
T HE endogenously released neurotransmitter substance, norepinephrine, or an injected sympathomimetic amine, ultimately exerts its actions on an organ system by combining with an area of the effector cell termed the adrenergic “receptor site.” That drugs and neural chemical mediators react with specific receptors in living tissues was suggested by Langley”” in 1905, who suggested that effector ...
متن کاملBeta-adrenergic blocking agents and anaesthesia: a review.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS in physiological and pharmacological studies involving the autonomic nervous system have uncovered intriguing new dimensions. It appears that clinical medicine will be influenced significantly by these discoveries. Diverse pathological entities such as angina pectoris, 1-9 cardiac arrhythrnias 1,",x~ obstructive cardiomyopathies, 1~,19,2~ phaeochromocytoma, 3,21-=" and essen...
