digitalis/경색증

It was established by means of radioimmunoassay that the blood concentration of Digoxin in patients with congestive heart failure depends not only on the dose of the drug given, but also on the stage of cardiac insufficiency. With equal daily doses, higher Digoxin concentrations were observed in

So-called nonocclusive or spastic mesenteric infarction is a well-known complication of severe circulatory failure with low cardiac output and hypotension. In recent years, acute mesenteric insufficiency has been described in connection with certain drugs. Clinical and experimental evidence suggests

For more than two centuries digitalis has been used in the treatment of cardiac disease. Despite this long clinical experience with the drug, controversy still exists as to its clinical effect and impact on survival, especially in patients after myocardial infarction.

The use of digitalis after acute myocardial infarction is controversial. The effect of digoxin on computer-quantitated thallium-201 perfusion scintigrams (Tl-201), left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF), and percentage of abnormally contracting LV regions (% ACR) was determined in 23 patients.
