Dantrolene versus amiodarone for cardiopulmonary resuscitation: a randomized, double-blinded experimental study

Dantrolene was introduced for treatment of malignant hyperthermia. It also has antiarrhythmic properties and may thus be an alternative to amiodarone for the treatment of ventricular fibrillation (VF). Aim of this study was to compare the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) with dantrolene and amiodarone in a pig model of cardiac arrest. VF was induced in anesthetized pigs. After 8 min of ...

Dantrolene improves survival after ventricular fibrillation by mitigating impaired calcium handling in animal models.

BACKGROUND Resistant ventricular fibrillation, refibrillation. and diminished myocardial contractility are important factors leading to poor survival after cardiac arrest. We hypothesized that dantrolene improves survival after ventricular fibrillation (VF) by rectifying the calcium dysregulation caused by VF. METHODS AND RESULTS VF was induced in 26 Yorkshire pigs for 4 minutes. Cardiopulmon...

SUDDEN VENTRICULAR FIBRILLATION DURING CATHE TERIZATION DUE TO LIDOCAINE INFILTRATION FOR LOCAL ANESTHESIA IN A 53 YEAR OLD WOMAN

Mrs. Heidari, 53 developed ventricular fibrillation and cardiopulmonary arrest after receiving 15 mL lidocaine 2% for local anesthesia at the Dr. Shariati Hospital Cathlab. There was no identified risk factor for her arrest preoperatively. She had a history of exertional chest pain for about 5 years and an electrocardiogram showed only inverted T-waves at the time of angiography. The case i...

Ellagic acid improved arrhythmias induced by CaCL2 in the rat stress model

Objective: In ventricular arrhythmias, due to their free radical scavenging action, antioxidant agents are usually used in the treatment of cardiovascular disease. Since stress is considered as risk factor for increased mortality by causing malignant arrhythmias, the study was designed to evaluate the cardioprotective effects of ellagic acid (EA) on CaCl2-induced arrhythmias in rat stress model...
