BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Drug-induced prolongation of the QT interval can lead to torsade de pointes, a life-threatening ventricular arrhythmia. Finding appropriate assays from among the plethora of options available to predict reliably this serious adverse effect in humans remains a challenging issue for the discovery and development of drugs. The purpose of the present study was to develop and ...
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...
BACKGROUND A variety of ECG changes occur as an aftermath of stroke. Prolongation of the QTc interval is a well-documented change. We analyzed QTc interval prolongation among patients with acute hemorrhagic strokes. METHODS This observational study was conducted at the Emergency Department of Sulaymaniyah General Teaching Hospital and Shar Hospital from September 1st, 2014 to August 31st, 201...
PURPOSE Although the ABCB1 (P-glycoprotein) drug transporter is a constituent of several blood-tissue barriers (i.e., blood-brain and blood-nerve), its participation in a putative blood-heart barrier has been poorly explored. ABCB1 could decrease the intracardiac concentrations of drugs that cause QT prolongation and cardiotoxicity. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN ABCB1-related romidepsin transport kinet...
Introduction. Several studies show that hypoglycemia causes QT interval prolongation. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of QT measurement methodology, heart rate correction, and insulin types during hypoglycemia. Methods. Ten adult subjects with type 1 diabetes had hypoglycemia induced by intravenous injection of two insulin types in a cross-over design. QT measurements were d...
BACKGROUND Droperidol and ondansetron have previously been found to prolong the QT interval in the treatment of postoperative nausea and vomiting. However, this adverse effect has never been confirmed and compared with both drugs under controlled conditions. The objective was to study the effects of droperidol and ondansetron alone or in combination on QT interval duration in healthy subjects. ...
INTRODUCTION Heart rate corrected QT (QTc) interval prolongation is a predictor of drug-induced torsade de pointes, a potentially fatal ventricular arrhythmia that disproportionately affects women. This study assesses whether there are sex differences in the ECG changes induced by four different hERG potassium channel blocking drugs. METHODS AND RESULTS Twenty-two healthy subjects (11 women) ...
QT prolongation is an electrocardiographic change that can lead to lethal arrhythmia. Acquired QT prolongation is known to be caused by drugs and electrolyte abnormalities. We report three cases in which the prolonged QT interval was improved at the time of operation by briefly discontinuing the drugs suspected to have caused the QT prolongation observed on preoperative electrocardiography. The...
Objective: In order to prolong the duration of intrathecal lidocaine, various drugs are used along with it. Due to the promising effects of tizanidine on central nervous system, it can be assumed that tizanidine can have a positive effect on increasing the anesthesia duration too. Thus, we aimed to investigate the effect of oral tizanidine on the duration of lidocaine spinal anesthesia.Me...
