OBJECTIVES This study examined the hypothesis that the sympathomimetic activity of ephedrine increases the risk of lethal arrhythmias. BACKGROUND The sympathomimetic amine, ephedrine, is used to augment physical performance and as a weight loss aid, but little is known about the cardiovascular consequences in individuals with ischemic heart disease. METHODS Fifteen dogs at low risk for vent...

The cause of the urinary alcohol level (UAL) cycle in rats fed ethanol at a constant rate has been shown to involve the hypothalamic-pituitary thyroid axis. Because the effect of thyroid hormone on the metabolic rate is augmented by catecholamines, the role of catecholamines was investigated by using the intragastric ethanol feeding model of alcoholic liver disease in which the UAL cycles over ...

BACKGROUND In our routine practice, we observed a reduced incidence of fetal acidosis (umbilical artery pH < 7.20) at cesarean delivery during spinal anesthesia when a combination of phenylephrine and ephedrine was used as first line vasopressor therapy, compared with using ephedrine alone. METHODS The study was randomized and double blind. It compared phenylephrine 100 microg/ml (phenylephri...
