Malignant hyperthermia in a regional facility: A case study
Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a rare hypermetabolic state that may be triggered by both anaesthesia and non-anaesthesia triggers. The main anaesthesia triggers for MH are the depolarising muscle relaxant suxamethonium and volatile anaesthetic gases. MH

Dantrolene reduces CaMKIIδC-mediated atrial arrhythmias.
AIMS In atrial fibrillation (AF), an increased diastolic Ca2+ leak from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) mediated by calcium/calmodulin-dependent-protein-kinaseIIδC (CaMKII) can serve as a substrate for arrhythmia induction and persistence. Dantrolene has

Caffeine and dobutamine challenge induces bidirectional ventricular tachycardia in normal rats
Background: Bidirectional ventricular tachycardia (BD-VT) is an intriguing arrhythmia, characterized by a beat-to-beat alternation of the QRS polarity on electrocardiogram. Currently there is no simple BD-VT animal model.
