Radiofrequency catheter ablation of life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias caused by left ventricular metastatic infiltration.
Metastases to the cardiac ventricles are rare and, unfortunately, often follow a rapidly fatal course.1,2 Occasionally, they cause symptomatic ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) for which limited therapeutic options exist, such as antiarrhythmic drugs, whereas the use of catheter ablation, to our knowledge, has never been reported to date. We present the case of a 27-year-old man with a metastatic t...
متن کاملEffect of oxprenolol on adrenaline-evoked ventricular arrhythmias in dogs anaesthetized with halothane in oxygen.
The effect of oxprenolol (CIBA 39,089-Ba), a recently introduced adrenergic betareceptor antagonist, on adrenaline-evoked ventricular arrhythmias was studied in atropinized dogs anaesthetized with halothane in oxygen. The anti-arrhythmic activity of oxprenolol was due to specific blockade of beta-receptors. The block produced was surmountable in nature and larger doses of adrenaline re-evoked v...
متن کاملDoxapram Hydrochloride Aggravates Adrenaline-Induced Arrhythmias Accompanied by Bidirectional Ventricular Tachycardia
Objectives. Doxapram hydrochloride is a respiratory stimulant that has an inhibitory effect on myocardial IK1 potassium channels and is thought to increase membrane instability and excitability in myocardial cells. We examined the arrhythmogenic effects of doxapram hydrochloride in a rat model of halothane adrenaline-induced arrhythmia. Methods. Thirteen female Wistar rats (12-14 weeks old) wer...
متن کاملVentricular Arrhythmias.
Ventricular tachycardia (VT) is the most common form of wide complex tachycardia and is associated with a high mortality rate. Electrocardiographic analysis remains paramount in diagnosis and helps to direct therapy. Antiarrhythmic agents, although effective in reducing arrhythmia burden, have never demonstrated a mortality benefit. The implantable cardioverter-defibrillator aids not only in th...
متن کاملTumescent Infiltration of Lidocaine and Adrenaline for Burn Surgery
The tumescent technique involves the injection of large volumes of dilute local anaesthetic such as lidocaine or bupivacaine, with or without adrenaline solution, into subcutaneous fat, obtaining swelling and firmness (tumescence) of the surgical area and also creating regional anaesthesia of the skin and subcutaneous tissue that allows cutaneous surgery without pain. In particular, in cutaneou...
