Psychotropic drugs, cardiac arrhythmia, and sudden death.
A variety of drugs targeted towards the central nervous system are associated with cardiac side effects, some of which are linked with reports of arrhythmia and sudden death. Some psychotropic drugs, particularly tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs) and antipsychotic agents, are correlated with iatrogenic prolongation of the QT interval of the electrocardiogram (ECG). In turn, this is associated wi...
متن کاملCardiac Arrhythmia 3 Ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death
Management strategies for ventricular arrhythmias are guided by the risk of sudden death and severity of symptoms. Patients with a substantial risk of sudden death usually need an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD). Although ICDs effectively end most episodes of ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation and decrease mortality in specific populations of patients, they have in...
متن کاملDefects in Cytoskeletal Signaling Pathways, Arrhythmia, and Sudden Cardiac Death
Ankyrin polypeptides are cellular adapter proteins that tether integral membrane proteins to the cytoskeleton in a host of human organs. Initially identified as integral components of the cytoskeleton in erythrocytes, a recent explosion in ankyrin research has demonstrated that these proteins play prominent roles in cytoskeletal signaling pathways and membrane protein trafficking/regulation in ...
متن کاملsimulation and experimental studies for prediction mineral scale formation in oil field during mixing of injection and formation water
abstract: mineral scaling in oil and gas production equipment is one of the most important problem that occurs while water injection and it has been recognized to be a major operational problem. the incompatibility between injected and formation waters may result in inorganic scale precipitation in the equipment and reservoir and then reduction of oil production rate and water injection rate. ...
Improved Prediction of Sudden Cardiac Death Risk
Risk stratification of patients to identify those who will benefit most from the primary prevention implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) remains a challenge. For the last decade, measurement of the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) as a clinical risk predictor is recognized to be inadequate. In fact, contemporary real world data indicate that of the patients identified using thi...
