The diagnoses and subsequent treatment of poisoned patients manifesting cardiovascular compromise challenges the most experienced emergency physician. Numerous drugs and chemicals cause cardiac and vascular disorders. Despite widely varying indications for therapeutic use, many agents share a common cardiovascular pharmacologic effect if taken in overdose. Standard advanced cardiac life support...
BACKGROUND Overexpression of the epidermal growth factor 2 HER2 in breast cancer tissue is associated with shorter survival. Trastuzumab, a monoclonal antibody against HER2, can induce tumor responses when given alone and enhances the effectiveness of several chemotherapeutic agents. METHODS The recent clinical data on outcomes regarding testing for HER2 overexpression and the tolerance, toxi...
The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of resveratrol in doxorubicin-induced cardiac and hepatic toxicity. Doxorubicin was administered once a week throughout the period of 7 weeks with 1.0 or 2.0 mg/kg body weight or concomitantly with resveratrol (20 mg/kg of feed). Heart and liver toxicity was histologically and biochemically evaluated. Resveratrol protected from the heart lipid per...
Concerns regarding metal-on-metal (MoM) bearing couples in total hip arthroplasty are well documented in the literature with cobalt (Co) and chromium (Cr) toxicity causing a range of both local and systemic adverse reactions. We describe the case of a patient undergoing cardiac transplantation as a direct result of Co and Cr toxicity following a MoM hip replacement. Poor implant positioning led...
Anthracyclines are among the most active agents for the treatment of breast cancer; their use in combination regimens improves both disease-free and overall survival in patients with breast cancer. Unfortunately, the clinical utility of anthracycline use is limited by a cumulative dose-dependent cardiac toxicity resulting in congestive heart failure. As methods for detecting and treating breast...
PURPOSE The antineoplastic efficacy of anthracyclines is limited by their cardiac toxicity. In this study, we evaluated the toxicity of doxorubicin, non-pegylated liposomal-delivered doxorubicin, and epirubicin in HL-1 adult cardiomyocytes in culture as well as in the mouse in vivo. METHODS The cardiomyocytes were incubated with the three anthracyclines (1 µM) to assess reactive oxygen genera...
Aconite is a plant with deceptively beautiful flowers that contain deadly cardiotoxin. toxicity presents often fatal ventricular arrhythmias are refractory to conventional antiarrhythmic medications. An electrical storm (ES) an acute cardiac emergency carries high mortality. We report one such case of aconite presenting ES was managed successfully hemodynamic support, overdrive pacing, and char...
Loperamide is over-the-counter antidiarrheal agent acting on peripherally located μ opioid receptors. It is gaining popularity among drug abusers as opioid substitute. We report a case of a 46-year-old male that was presented after cardiac arrest. After ruling out ischemia, cardiomyopathy, pulmonary embolism, central nervous system pathology, sepsis, and other drug toxicity, we found out that p...
Carfilzomib (Cfz) has been associated with an ~5% incidence of unexplained and unpredictable cardiovascular toxicity in clinical trials. We therefore implemented a detailed, prospective, clinical cardiac and renal evaluation of 62 Cfz-treated myeloma patients, including serial blood pressure (BP), creatinine, troponin, NT-proBNP and pre- and post-treatment echocardiograms, including ejection fr...
Local anesthetic toxicity remains a clinical concern when performing regional anesthesia. Because signs and symptoms of toxicity may not appear for 20 to 30 minutes after administration of local anesthetic, vigilance is crucial. When signs and symptoms of local anesthetic toxicity appear, traditional standards mandate resuscitative measures, including maintenance of oxygenation, elimination of ...
