acetazolamide and Arrhythmias, Cardiac

acetazolamide has been researched along with Arrhythmias, Cardiac in 12 studies

Acetazolamide: One of the CARBONIC ANHYDRASE INHIBITORS that is sometimes effective against absence seizures. It is sometimes useful also as an adjunct in the treatment of tonic-clonic, myoclonic, and atonic seizures, particularly in women whose seizures occur or are exacerbated at specific times in the menstrual cycle. However, its usefulness is transient often because of rapid development of tolerance. Its antiepileptic effect may be due to its inhibitory effect on brain carbonic anhydrase, which leads to an increased transneuronal chloride gradient, increased chloride current, and increased inhibition. (From Smith and Reynard, Textbook of Pharmacology, 1991, p337)

Arrhythmias, Cardiac: Any disturbances of the normal rhythmic beating of the heart or MYOCARDIAL CONTRACTION. Cardiac arrhythmias can be classified by the abnormalities in HEART RATE, disorders of electrical impulse generation, or impulse conduction.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Arrhythmias were rare and similar with all treatments."6.79Effect of oxygen and acetazolamide on nocturnal cardiac conduction, repolarization, and arrhythmias in precapillary pulmonary hypertension and sleep-disturbed breathing. ( Bloch, KE; Hasler, ED; Hildenbrand, FF; Keusch, S; Müller-Mottet, S; Schumacher, DS; Speich, R; Ulrich, S, 2014)
" We evaluated whether hypobaric hypoxia during altitude travel further impairs cardiac repolarization in patients with OSA, and whether this is prevented by acetazolamide, a drug known to improve oxygenation and central sleep apnea at altitude."5.22Patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea Have Cardiac Repolarization Disturbances when Travelling to Altitude: Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Trial of Acetazolamide.
