The aim of this paper is to present a case of the patient who was hospitalized in the Toxicology and Cardiology Department because of suicidal digoxin and theophylline intoxication. Both drugs have complicated mechanism of action and affect cardiovascular system differently, but both predispose to
OBJECTIVE
The aim was to look for the presence of circulating factor(s) with Na,K-ATPase inhibitory properties and digoxin like immunoreactivity in patients after acute myocardial infarction.
METHODS
Venous blood samples were obtained when the patients were admitted and different methods were used
The main aim of the study was to test the hypotheses that (a) concentrations of endogenous digoxin-like factor (EDLF) are increased in the initial period after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and (b) may contribute to the onset of ventricular arrhythmias. 54 patients of both sexes with a first
Elderly and old patients with subacute myocardial infarction showed elevated gastrointestinal digoxin absorption rates and a tendency to increased bioavailability of the drug, as compared to similar parameters in infarction-free patients of the same age, so that blood digoxin peaks were higher in
The hemodynamic effects of digoxin (0.01 mg/Kg) on congestive heart failure were compared in 32 patients with old myocardial infarction (OMI) (n = 9), dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) (n = 10), acute myocardial infarction (AMI) (n = 5) and mitral stenosis (MS) (n = 8). The responses of heart rate (HR)
The hemodynamic effects of dobutamine were compared with those of digoxin in six patients with cardiac failure within 24 hours of onset of acute myocardial infarction. Dobutamine (8.5 microgram per kilogram of body weight per minute) was given intravenously for 30 minutes and then discontinued until
Thirty-four patients with atrial fibrillation complicating suspected acute myocardial infarction were randomised to treatment with intravenous amiodarone (n = 18) or intravenous digoxin (n = 16). After 24 h, similar proportions of patients in each group had reverted to sinus rhythm. However, there
Hemodynamic effects of digoxin in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) have been acknowledged to depend on the basal cardiocirculatory state. In the present study, the effects of digoxin in patients with AMI were evaluated in four hemodynamic subsets, based on the relationship between mean pulmonary
The effects of maintenance oral digoxin therapy on segmental left ventricular wall motion (wall motion videotracking) and left heart size (radiographic left heart dimension) were evaluated in 14 patients with a prior myocardial infarction but without clinical signs or symptoms of congestive heart
Controversy surrounds the safety of digoxin use in patients recovering from acute myocardial infarction. Previous observations yielded contradictory conclusions. To determine whether digoxin therapy is associated with increased mortality in patients recovering from acute myocardial infarction, we
The hemodynamic effects of digitalis were examined in ten patients with acute cardiac failure. Administration of 10 micrograms/kg of digoxin iv resulted in significant increases in cardiac index, stroke volume index, and left ventricular stroke work index within one hour in five patients with acute
The efficiency of digoxin in elderly and old patients with subacute myocardial infarction is dependent on the original disorders of left-ventricular systolic phase structure. Changes in systolic phase structural parameters in the presence of supporting digoxin therapy show correspondence to changes
A group of 65 patients with acute infarction of myocardium (IM) who were not treated with digitalis preparations were subdued to examination to the presence of digitalis-like substances in their urine by means of radioimmuno-analytic method with use of anti-digoxin antibodies. The control group was
The results of exercise electrocardiography were studied in a random sample of 317 subjects with clinical suspicion of coronary artery disease. In 278 patients with coronary artery disease the rate of false negative tests was 18% with and 12% without previous myocardial infarction. If ST elevation
We examined clinical outcomes associated with non-randomised digoxin therapy in a postmyocardial infarction population with clinical heart failure (AIRE study). Our results raise concern about the safety of digoxin in this population.
