Drugs are an attractive option for the cardioversion of AF and atrial flutter because their use does not require anaesthesia. Antiarrhythmic drugs in class III of the Vaughan-Williams classification are effective in the treatment of AF, but they have adverse effects; several new 'pure' class III...
Radiofrequency ablation of atrial flutter due to administration of class IC antiarrhythmic drugs for atrial fibrillation In selected patients, atrial fibrillation (AF) converts to atrial flutter (AFl) due to treatment with class IC antiarrhythmic drugs. In this study, we pros... B Schumacher,W ...
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia in older adults with a prevalence of 9 % in adults aged 80 years or older. AF patients have a five times greater risk of developing stroke than the general population. Using anticoagulants for stroke prevention in the elderly becomes a ch...
Antiarrhythmic drugs work against arrhythmias, which are abnormal heart rhythms. These medications are effective in treating fast arrhythmias, such asatrial fibrillation,atrial flutter,ventricular tachycardia(VT), and supraventricular tachycardia (SVT). Some of the medications in this class include the foll...
112, Deslanoside Injection (also called: cedilanid) is mainly used for the control of heart failure with rapid ventricular rate of atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter in patients with ventricular rate. 113, Asarone Injection: for pneumonia, bronchial asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ...
