Antiarrhythmic actions of tedisamil: Studies in rats and primates

Tedisamil is a new bradycardic agent, previously shown to block transient outward and delayed rectifier potassium currents in cardiac tissue [1,2]. In the present study tedisamil caused bradycardia and Q-Tc widening in rats and primates. Q-Tc widening is indicative of class III antiarrhythmic actions. In keeping with this, tedisamil had antiarrhythmic activity against electrical and ischemia-induced arrhythmias in rats. In rats, 0.5–4 mg/kg IV tedisamil caused parallel and dose-related increases in action-potential duration, Q-Tc interval, and refractory period; and decreases in maximum ventricular following frequency. In primates after 0.5–2.0 mg/kg IV, findings were similar for indices of Q-T widening and decreases in maximum ventricular following frequency. Tedisamil did not change QRS width, nor did it increase threshold currents for capture of ventricles, nor for fibrillo-flutter at doses below 4 mg/kg in rats. These findings were consistent with the lack of significant sodium-channel blockade. However, upon increasing the dose to 4 mg/kg, ventricular fibrillo-flutter could not be induced in rats by electrical stimulation; instead, only ventricular tachycardias with slow rates occurred. Ischemia-induced ventricular fibrillation was reduced in a dose-related manner by tedisamil in rats. The overall incidence of ischemia-induced ventricular tachycardia was not markedly reduced, but rates during tachycardic episodes were lower. When pacing was used to overcome tedisamil-induced bradycardia, antiarrhythmic actions during ischemia were more pronounced. These findings are consistent with the hypothesis that tedisamil increased refractoriness, which resulted in extended path lengths for reentry circuits and slower rates during episodes of ventricular tachycardia. High doses of tedisamil increased path lengths so much that the multiple reentry circuits of fibrillation could no longer occur. The limited study in primates suggests similar mechanisms could occur in humans.     

Two Lambert-Eaton Myasthenic Syndrome Patients with Ameliorated Activities of Daily Living Due to Cholinesterase Inhibitors

We herein report two P/Q-type voltage-gated calcium channel (VGCC) antibody-positive Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome (LEMS) patients who responded dramatically to cholinesterase inhibitors. Patient 1, a 76-year-old man, had small-cell lung cancer and developed LEMS during chemotherapy. When symptomatic treatment was started with pyridostigmine, gait disturbance was ameliorated, and his modified Rankin scale decreased from 4 points to 3 points. Patient 2, a 68-year-old man, had cancer-free LEMS. Distigmine bromide was very effective and ameliorated not only his gait disturbance but also autonomic symptoms, and his modified Rankin scale decreased from 2 points to 1 point. Cholinesterase inhibitors alone may be effective in a small portion of LEMS patients.

Effect of long‐chain triglyceride lipid emulsion on bupivacaine‐induced changes in electrophysiological parameters of rabbit Purkinje cells

Lipid emulsions are used in the reversal of local anesthetic toxicity. The aim of this study was to investigate the cellular electrophysiological effects of long‐chain triglyceride lipid emulsion (LCTE) on cardiac action potential characteristics and conduction disturbances induced by bupivacaine. Purkinje fibers were dissected from the left ventricle of New Zealand white rabbit hearts and superfused with either Tyrode's solution during 30 min (control group), with bupivacaine 10^?6 m , 10^?5 m , and 5.10^?5 m alone, or in the presence of LCTE 0.5%, in addition, LCTE at 0.1%, 0.5%, and 1% was perfused alone. Electrophysiological parameters were recorded using the conventional microelectrode technique (37 °C, 1 Hz frequency). Bupivacaine 5.10^?5 m ‐induced conduction blocks (8/8 preparations): LCTE 0.5% suppressed the bupivacaine 5.10^?5 m ‐induced conduction blocks (1/8 preparations). Exposure to bupivacaine 10^?6 m , 10^?5 m , and 5.10^?5 m resulted in a significant decrease in the maximal rate of depolarization (V_max) (respectively, 25%, 55%, 75%; P < 0.002 vs. control group). In the presence of LCTE 0.5%, bupivacaine 10^?6 m did not significantly decreased V_max (13%; P = 0.10 vs. control group). The decrease in V_max resulting from bupivacaine 10^?5 m alone was significantly less in the presence of LCTE 0.5% (P < 0.01 vs. bupivacaine 10^?5 m alone). Exposure to bupivacaine 10^?6 m , 10^?5 m , and 5.10^?5 m alone or in the presence of LCTE 0.5% resulted in a significant decrease in action potential duration measured at 50% and 90% repolarization (APD₅₀ and APD₉₀; P < 0.01 vs. control group). LCTE inhibited the Purkinje fibers conduction blocks induced by bupivacaine. Moreover, LCTE 0.5% attenuates the decrease in V_max induced by bupivacaine 10^?6 m and 10^?5 m .     

Multiple Concealed Accessory Pathways Associate with Antegrade Triple AV Nodal Pathways and Catheter Ablation

This article describes a 54-year-old man with incessant supraven-tricular tachycardia refractory to antiarrhythmic drugs. Multiple concealed accessory pathways associated with antegrade triple AV nodal pathways were documented by a series of successful catheter ablations and detailed electrophysiological studies. After the left-wall accessory pathways were abolished with two courses of multiple low energy shocks, another two accessory pathways, one near the os of coronary sinus and the other near the site of the His bundle, were documented by programmed premature ventricular stimulation. This was followed by a third course of shocks to the os of coronary sinus for ablating posteroseptal AP and a fourth course of shock to proximal His bundle for control of SVT with a septal accessory pathway as a retrograde limb and AV nodal pathways as an antegrade limb. Without medications, the patient has remained asymptomatic even during moderate physical activity over a follow-up period of 36 months. His ECG showed sinus rhythm with persistence of right bundle branch block.     

Significance of tilt table testing in patients with suspected arrhythmic syncope and negative electrophysiologic study

BACKGROUND: The diagnostic significance of a tilt table test (TTT) in patients with a suspected arrhythmic etiology for syncope and negative electrophysiologic study (EPS) has not been previously assessed comparing the TTT results with the findings of prolonged monitoring using an implantable loop recorder (ILR). We sought to assess the diagnostic yielding of TTT in patients with suspected arrhythmic syncope and negative EPS. METHODS AND RESULTS: In 81 patients with suspected arrhythmic etiology for syncope and negative EPS, TTT was performed and an ILR implanted regardless the results of TTT. TTT was positive in 38 patients. During follow-up, syncope or presyncope recurred in 32 patients (39.5%). No differences were found in recurrence rates in patients with positive and negative TTT (31.5% vs 46.5%, P = ns). According to rhythm registered during ILR activation, mechanisms of syncopal events were classified as: arrhythmic (atrioventricular [AV] block and ventricular tachycardia; n = 18), neurally mediated (sinus bradycardia and sinus pause; n = 9), and indeterminate (normal sinus rhythm; n = 5). There was no statistical association between the results of TTT and the mechanism of syncope. CONCLUSIONS: In patients with a suspected arrhythmic etiology for syncope and a negative EPS, TTT is of little value to predict the mechanism of syncope and the ILR implantation seems to be a useful and safe diagnostic strategy.
