METHODS
A 60-year-old man had a dacron aortofemoral bypass graft inserted to replace a ruptured infrarenal aortic aneurysm rupture. He subsequently had tachyarrhythmic atrial fibrillation with heart failure, NYHA class IV, and diffuse abdominal pain associated with watery diarrhea.
METHODS
Stool
Seventy-seven horses with atrial fibrillation (AF) were treated orally with quinidine sulfate (QS) at the University of Pennsylvania, School of Veterinary Medicine, Thirty-seven horses (48%) had adverse reactions to QS, the most common of which were nasal mucosal edema, anorexia, colic, and
BACKGROUND
Patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) may be susceptible to gastrointestinal (GI) effects of medications used for thromboprophylaxis.
OBJECTIVE
To determine the incidence of thromboprophylaxis discontinuation due to GI symptoms and GI events.
METHODS
A systematic search of MEDLINE
Azimilide dihydrochloride (or azimilide) is a class III antiarrhythmic drug currently under investigation that has been tested in atrial fibrillation in four randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trials to assess efficacy and dose range. These investigational trials showed that doses of azimilide
Quinidine gluconate was administered slowly by intravenous infusion to 20 patients with atrial fibrillation. Nineteen of them had rheumatic heart disease and the other one had Ebstein's disease. The first ten patients received 0.027 mg/kg/min during 6 hs or less if they returned to normal sinus
Vagus nerve injury during catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation can significantly impact quality of life and result in lingering gastrointestinal symptoms. This study was designed to define risk factors of vagus nerve injury, symptoms, prevalence, and temporal resolution.
A total of 100 patients
To report a case of Polyarteritis Nodosa (PAN) presenting as bilateral episcleritis and interstitial keratitis along with erythema nodosum and atrial fibrillation and to review the ophthalmic literature on PAN with anterior segment findings.A 35-year old DT, a 63-year-old white male with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus and severe peripheral vascular disease, was admitted with a five-day history of vague abdominal pain and diarrhea. On the day of admission he vomited three times, was noted to have a bloody stool, and came to the emergency room.
Systemic lupus can involve any part of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Diarrhea generally results from complications arising from infection, drugs or pancreatitis. We herein report the case of a 40-year-old hypertensive man with a psychotic disorder in whom the evaluation of chronic diarrhea
Diagnostic testing for Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) by nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT) cannot distinguish between colonization and infection. A positive NAAT may therefore represent a false positive for infection, since diarrhea due to various aetiologies may occur Cyclophosphamide (CYA), also known as cytophosphane, is a medication used as a chemotherapeutic agent and immune suppressor.Its common adverse effects include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, bone marrow suppression, hemorrhagic cystitis, alopecia, lethargy, and cardiotoxicity. Cyclophosphamide-related
In the armamentarium for rhythm control, amiodarone has been a mainstay of therapy for the management of atrial fibrillation (AF). Although amiodarone has shown to be effective in maintaining sinus rhythm, it has many extracardiac adverse effects. Dronedarone, a benzofuran amiodarone derivative, is
Background: Studies using 1 mg of colchicine to prevent postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) reported conflicting results. Moreover, colchicine was associated with significant gastrointestinal (GI) side effects. This study examined
