Diltiazem N‐oxide, a novel ischaemia‐activated prodrug, prevents ischaemia‐induced ventricular fibrillation without off‐target adverse effects

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Ventricular fibrillation (VF) in coronary heart disease accounts for up to 70% of sudden cardiac death. We examined whether diltiazem N‐oxide (DNO) has ischaemia‐selective antiarrhythmic activity. Experimental Approach Randomised and blinded experiments were performed in rat isolated hearts and in anaesthetised rats to ...

Torsades de pointes and myocardial infarction following reversal of supraventricular tachycardia with adenosine: a case report [PDF]

Einstein (São Paulo)
Adenosine is an antiarrhythmic drug that slows conduction through the atrioventricular node and acts as a coronary blood vessel dilator. This case report highlights two unusual life-threatening events following the use of adenosine to revert ...

Response to equine cardiac adverse events during sports

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Cardiac adverse events and sudden death are a feared scenario for equine veterinarians, with serious consequences for animal health, riders' safety and the social licence to operate equestrian sports. The response to equine cardiac adverse events (CAEs) during sports is poorly defined.

The Electrophysiology Experience in Patients With Ebstein's Anomaly Undergoing the da Silva Cone Repair at UPMC Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction The da Silva Cone repair (CR) has demonstrated to be an effective intervention for Ebstein's anomaly (EA). Perioperative management can be complicated by arrhythmias, but previous studies showed improvement with preoperative catheter and intraoperative surgical ablation.

Amiodarone‐related thyroid dysfunction and associated outcomes in patients with heart failure—A nationwide cohort study

Journal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Amiodarone increases the risk of thyroid dysfunction, but the prognostic significance of this complication in patients with heart failure (HF) is uncertain. This study investigates the association between amiodarone‐related thyroid dysfunction and risk of HF hospitalization or death in a nationwide cohort.
