Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Coronary slow flow (SF) and no‐reflow (NR) are clinically significant complications of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), particularly in ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and saphenous vein graft (SVG) interventions. Angiographically defined as impaired myocardial perfusion despite restored epicardial patency, SF/NR ...

Retrospective, Multicenter Study of Lacosamide to Treat Neonatal Seizures
Annals of the Child Neurology Society, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Most antiseizure medications (ASMs) are prescribed off label for neonates. Lacosamide's efficacy in infants and availability in intravenous formulation suggest potential utility for neonates. We evaluated the safety and efficacy of lacosamide for neonatal seizures. Methods This 10‐center, retrospective study of neonates with seizures

Major Adverse Cardiac Events with Ondansetron: A Systematic Review
Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.Evidence base: 170 randomized trials, 23,421 adults, predominantly single‐dose IV ondansetron, mean follow‐up 20 days. Observed outcomes: Major adverse cardiac events were rare, no ventricular arrhythmias or torsades de pointes observed. Conclusion: Ondansetron was not associated with increased mortality or serious cardiac arrhythmias in adult ...
