OBJECTIVE
"Renal dose" dopamine (rDA; 1-3 microg/kg per min) is administered to patients after cardiac surgery to preserve or improve renal function. Many of these patients develop new-onset postoperative atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter (pAF) that could be related to rDA administration. The
OBJECTIVE
We sought to assess the efficacy and safety of ibutilide cardioversion for those with atrial fibrillation (AF) or atrial flutter (AFL) receiving long-term treatmentwith class IC agents.
BACKGROUND
Attenuation of ibutilide-induced QT prolongation has been observed in a small number of
BACKGROUND
The ectopic foci originating from superior vena cava (SVC) may act as triggers in the occurrence and perpetuation of atrial fibrillation (AF). Unfortunately, the SVC isolation may result in potential dysfunction of sinus node. Furthermore, little is known about the occurrence of sinus
The purpose of this study was to review the incidence of cardiac arrhythmias in 137 anesthetized dogs and 13 anesthetized cats with congenital or acquired heart disease that were referred for correction of following procedures: patent ductus arteriosus (PDA-ligation, 28%), cardiac catheterization
BACKGROUND
We report a 56-year-olds female with supraventricular arrhythmia due acute ischemic stroke without structural heart disease.
METHODS
A patient presented with sudden onset of lethargy, right hemiplegia, and global aphasia. There was previous history of stroke 1 year ago presented with left
Milrinone reduces the risk of low cardiac output syndrome for some pediatric patients after congenital heart surgery. Data from adults undergoing cardiac surgery suggest an association between milrinone and an increased risk of postoperative arrhythmias. We tested the hypothesis that milrinone is an
