Recurrent atypical ventricular tachycardia, with a long QT interval,was documented in a 56-year-old patient 16 days after discontinuingamiodarone 200 mg and 400 mg on alternate days. Tachycardiaand variable prolongation of myocardial repolarization wereabolished by temporary cardiac pacing and correction of mildhypokalaemia.  相似文献

Although amiodarone appears to have few pro-arrhythmic effects, torsade de pointes (TdP) has been observed during long-term drug administration, usually in conjunction with electrolyte disturbances, a change in drug dosage, or concomitant drug therapy. We report two cases of amiodarone-induced TdP shortly after administration of a low dose of oral amiodarone, in the absence of predisposing factors.  相似文献

Torsade de pointes during loading with amiodarone   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Torsade de pointes represents a potential complication of chronicamiodarone therapy. Several reports have emphasized the needfor a loading dose in order to achieve therapeutic blood levelsrapidly. We report a case of torsade de pointes following asingle oral dose of amiodarone (1400 mg or 30 mg kg–1)administered after short intravenous loading for preventionof paroxysmal atrial flutter. Torsades de pointes were precededand associated with marked QT prolongation and bradycardia.This report suggests that careful monitoring of patients undergoingoral amiodarone loading is necessary.  相似文献

Two cases of torsade de pointes associated with bradycardia and takotsubo cardiomyopathy are reported. In both cases, atrioventricular block preceded the occurrence of takotsubo cardiomyopathy. Bradycardia-induced QT interval prolongation seemed to be amplified by the occurrence of takotsubo cardiomyopathy, resulting in torsade de pointes. Temporary ventricular pacing at a high rate decreased the QT interval and prevented the recurrence of torsade de pointes. Because atrioventricular block recurred or persisted even after the resolution of takotsubo cardiomyopathy, the patients received permanent pacemakers.  相似文献

The drug-induced Torsade de Pointes (TdP) tachycardia is a known regulatory problem which led to the concept of the so-called thorough QT (TQT) studies now required for practically every new pharmaceutical compound. This review summarizes the concept of the TQT studies, their statistical evaluation, and related pharmacodynamic /pharmacokinetic modeling. The review also lists suggestions of how to make TQT studies more efficient and how to improve the interpretation of clinical data obtained during drug development to identify drugs prone to TdP induction more effectively.  相似文献

AIMS: As arrhythmias in the long QT syndrome (LQTS) are triggered by heart rate deceleration or acceleration, we speculated that the sudden bradycardia and subsequent tachycardia that follow adenosine injection would unravel QT changes of diagnostic value in patients with LQTS. METHODS AND RESULTS: Patients (18 LQTS and 20 controls) received intravenous adenosine during sinus rhythm. Adenosine was injected at incremental doses until atrioventricular block or sinus pauses lasting 3 s occurred. The QT duration and morphology were studied at baseline and at the time of maximal bradycardia and subsequent tachycardia. Despite similar degree of adenosine-induced bradycardia (longest R-R 1.7+/-0.7 vs. 2.2+/-1.3 s for LQTS and controls, P=NS), the QT interval of LQT patients increased by 15.8+/-13.1%, whereas the QT of controls increased by only 1.5+/-6.7% (P<0.001). Similarly, despite similar reflex tachycardia (shortest R-R 0.58+/-0.07 vs. 0.55+/-0.07 s for LQT patients and controls, P=NS), LQTS patients developed greater QT prolongation (QTc=569+/-53 vs. 458+/-58 ms for LQT patients and controls, P<0.001). The best discriminator was the QTc during maximal bradycardia. Notched T-waves were observed in 72% of LQT patients but in only 5% of controls during adenosine-induced bradycardia (P<0.001). CONCLUSION: By provoking transient bradycardia followed by sinus tachycardia, this adenosine challenge test triggers QT changes that appear to be useful in distinguishing patients with LQTS from healthy controls.  相似文献

Serious adverse effects of amiodarone   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Amiodarone is an effective antiarrhythmic drug which has been used successfully to treat a variety of cardiac arrhythmias. Early reports emphasized both the striking efficacy of this agent and the relative paucity of side effects necessitating discontinuing treatment with this drug. As amiodarone has been used more widely and in more diverse patient populations, reports of serious thyroid, pulmonary, cardiovascular, and other adverse reactions have appeared in the literature. In this paper, we review the serious adverse effects that have been reported to date. The incidence of these reactions varies considerably in different series, and cannot be explained solely by different doses employed or by varying methods of drug administration. The final role of amiodarone in the therapy of cardiac arrhythmias cannot be determined until the long-term toxicity has been more thoroughly investigated.  相似文献

Dofetilide is an effective antiarrhythmic agent for conversion of atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter as well as maintenance of sinus rhythm in appropriately selected patients. However, as with other antiarrhythmic agents, proarrhythmia is a known adverse effect. The risk of dofetilide induced torsade de pointes (Tdp) is low when used with strict dosing criteria guided by renal function, QT interval and concomitant drug therapy. Benefit from dofetilide use must be individualized and weighed against the side effects and the role of other available treatment options. In this review, we discuss the underlying mechanism, risk factors and precautionary measures to avoid dofetilide induced QT prolongation and ventricular tachycardia/Tdp. We suggest a scheme for the management of QT prolongation, ventricular arrhythmia and Tdp as well.  相似文献

We describe 2 patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) in whom torsade de pointes (TdP) developed during treatment with arsenic trioxide. Patient 1 was a 23-year-old woman with second-relapse APL. Ventricular premature beat bigeminy developed on day 27 of treatment, and episodes of TdP developed on day 28. Patient 2 was a 51-year-old woman with second-relapse APL who had cardiomyopathy due to prior anthracycline treatment. TdP developed on day 17 of treatment. Arsenic trioxide is known to cause electrocardiographic abnormalities, such as ventricular tachycardia and prolongation of QT interval. Patient 1 was given fluconazole as a concomitant drug. Patient 2 had cardiomyopathy and hypokalemia. Careful management is needed during arsenic trioxide therapy because this treatment prolongs the QT interval, possibly inducing episodes of TdP.  相似文献

目的分析长时间应用盐酸尼非卡兰(尼非卡兰)治疗持续性室性心动过速(室速)的安全性及有效性。方法顺序入选院内发作持续性室速的患者,分为不同用药时间组观察静脉应用尼非卡兰的复律效果及安全性。结果从2005年9月至2008年11月连续人选16例持续性室速患者,给予负荷量0.5mg/kg后,维持量(0.8mg·kg^-1·h^-1)分为短时组(1h)和长时组(12h),各8例。维持时间分别为,长时组可以在用药90min后追加第二次负荷量0.25mg/kg。长时组患者左心室射血分数(LVEF)有好于短时组的趋势(0.52±0.14)和(0.39±0.15),P=0.054。两组各有3例患者在维持用药60min内转复,而长时组另有4例患者在维持量超过60min后转复;用药终止室速即刻患者的QTc均明显长于停药12h后,但转复时两组间QTc差异无统计学意义(P=0.981)。短时组有1例患者出现尖端扭转性室速(Tdp),其QTc达到了610ms,其他患者未见任何副作用。结论长时间应用尼非卡兰治疗多种疾病并发的室速具有一定的安全性,而且可以明显提高治疗的有效性。但在实际应用中应密切监测QTc以减少Tdp的发生。  相似文献

AIMS: With transthoracic cardioversion of atrial fibrillation (AF), biphasic are more effective than monophasic waveforms. We sought to determine the ideal energy levels for biphasic waveforms. Methods We compared biphasic truncated exponential waveforms with monophasic damped sine waveform defibrillators, in a prospective, single-centre, randomized (1:1 ratio) study. The study included 154 patients receiving concomitant amiodarone; 77 received serial biphasic (50, 100, 150, up to 175 J) and 77 monophasic shocks (100, 200, 300, up to 360 J), as necessary. Results First-shock efficacy was similar in the two groups (57 vs. 55%, P = 0.871, respectively), as were serial-shocks (90 vs. 92%, P = 0.780). Both groups received equal numbers of shocks (1.8 +/- 1.1 vs. 1.7 +/- 1.0, P = 0.921). In both groups, serum creatine kinase levels showed a small but significant increase. The increase was, however, higher in the monophasic group. CONCLUSION: In patients with concomitant amiodarone therapy, biphasic truncated exponential shocks, using half the energy, were as effective as monophasic damped sine shocks. The biphasic scheme was not more efficacious for cardioverting AF. In our population, a first shock of at least 100 J seemed advisable with either waveform. If necessary, escalating shocks must be performed, but ideal levels of increase per shock are still uncertain for biphasic waveforms.  相似文献

Ketoconazole is not known to be proarrhythmic without concomitant use of QT interval-prolonging drugs. We report a woman with coronary artery disease who developed a markedly prolonged QT interval and torsades de pointes (TdP) after taking ketoconazole for treatment of fungal infection. Her QT interval returned to normal upon withdrawal of ketoconazole. Genetic study did not find any mutation in her genes that encode cardiac IKr channel proteins. We postulate that by virtue of its direct blocking action on IKr, ketoconazole alone may prolong QT interval and induce TdP. This calls for attention when ketoconazole is administered to patients with risk factors for acquired long QT syndrome.  相似文献

High‐Rate Pacing Prevents Drug‐Induced Arrhythmias. Introduction: High‐rate pacing may have an inhibitory effect on the initiation of Torsade de Pointes arrhythmias (TdP). However, permanent pacing is only indicated in high‐risk patients. We performed a proof of concept study into automatic overdrive pacing for prevention of drug‐induced TdP, using short‐term variability of repolarization (STV) as a feedback parameter of arrhythmic risk. Methods and Results: The minimal signal sampling frequency required for measuring STV was determined through computer simulation. Arrhythmogenic response to dofetilide (25 μg/kg/5minutes) was tested at two different paced heart rates (60–65 bpm vs 100–110 bpm) in 7 dogs with chronic atrioventricular block, while recording right and left ventricular (LV) monophasic action potential (MAP) and LV electrogram (EGM). Simulations showed a sampling frequency of 500 Hz is sufficient to capture relevant STV values. High‐rate pacing prevented dofetilide‐induced TdP seen at the low rate (low: 6/7 vs high: 1/7). At the low rate, STV from LV MAP duration increased before occurrence of spontaneous, ectopic activity and TdP (1.7 ± 0.6–3.0 ± 1.8 ms, P < 0.05), but at the high‐rate STV did not change significantly (0.9 ± 0.2–1.5 ± 1.4 ms, NS). Regression analysis showed a close relation between STV calculated from LV MAP and from LV EGM (R2= 0.71). Conclusions: High‐rate pacing increases repolarization reserve in dogs with chronic atrioventricular block, preventing dofetilide‐induced TdP. Changes in repolarization reserve are reflected in values of STV. (J Cardiovasc Electrophysiol, Vol. 21, pp. 1384‐1391, December 2010)  相似文献
