Acute atrial wall stretch and the efficacy of flecainide-induced conversion of atrial fibrillation
The success rate of drug-administered cardioversion of AF depends on many factors such as gender, duration of AF, presence of structural heart disease and so forth. According to our guidelines for drug-administered cardioversion of AF (see www.NVVC.nl), intravenous flecainide, propafenone, ibutilide, or vernakalant are recommended (Class 1, level A) when pharmacological cardioversion is preferr...
متن کاملAntiarrhythmic and Electrophysiologic Effects of Flecainide on Acutely Induced Atrial Fibrillation in Healthy Horses
BACKGROUND Only few pharmacologic compounds have been validated for treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF) in horses. Studies investigating the utility and safety of flecainide to treat AF in horses have produced conflicting results, and the antiarrhythmic mechanisms of flecainide are not fully understood. OBJECTIVES To study the potential of flecainide to terminate acutely induced AF of short...
متن کاملCardioversion of atrial fibrillation of recent onset with flecainide.
Twenty-eight patients with atrial fibrillation of less than 1 month's duration were given a single intravenous bolus of flecainide (2 mg/kg). Nineteen patients (68%) were successfully converted to sinus rhythm. Of the 19 patients with atrial fibrillation of less than 72 hours duration, 18 (95%) were successfully converted. Failure to cardiovert was associated with cardiomegaly on chest X-ray an...
متن کاملSuccessful treatment of atrial tachycardias with flecainide acetate.
Intravenous flecainide successfully terminated atrial tachycardia in three patients. Maintenance treatment with oral flecainide prevented the recurrence of tachycardia for up to three years. These results suggest an additional use for flecainide which should be further explored.
متن کاملTime to Sputum Smear Conversion in Smear-Positive Pulmonary Tuberculosis Patients and Factors for Delayed Conversion
Pulmonary tuberculosis is a common infection worldwide. In the eastern part of Iran, fluctuations in tuberculosis prevalence are seen due to the migration of people from Afghanistan. The aim of this study was to evaluate the time of bacteriologic sputum conversion after treatment and affecting factors in those whose smear does not become negative.This study was carried out on 85 smear-positive ...
