Use-dependent prolongation of ventricular tachycardia cycle length by type I antiarrhythmic drugs in humans.
BACKGROUND Type I antiarrhythmic drugs block the cardiac sodium channel in a use-dependent fashion. This use-dependent behavior causes increased drug binding and consequently increased sodium channel blockade at faster stimulation rates. Importantly, the kinetics of drug association and dissociation from the sodium channel differ for each type I antiarrhythmic drug. METHODS AND RESULTS Thirty...
متن کاملMonophasic action potentials in a patient with multiform ventricular tachycardia without QT prolongation.
A 41 year old woman had multiform ventricular tachycardia without QT prolongation. Monophasic action potentials were recorded from the right ventricle during the attacks of multiform ventricular tachycardia and effective refractory periods were examined at the same sites. There was no abnormal hump to suggest early afterdepolarisation in the monophasic action potentials, but there was dispersio...

QT prolongation and the antiarrhythmic efficacy of amiodarone.
Amiodarone is an antiarrhythmic agent known to cause prolongation of action potential duration which is reflected in the electrocardiogram as a prolongation of the QT interval. Prolongation of the QT interval in patients dying suddenly was compared with that in patients who remained alive to determine whether a difference existed between these two groups. The electrocardiogram and amiodarone le...
