chlorpromazine and Heart Arrest

chlorpromazine has been researched along with Heart Arrest in 16 studies

Chlorpromazine: The prototypical phenothiazine antipsychotic drug. Like the other drugs in this class chlorpromazine's antipsychotic actions are thought to be due to long-term adaptation by the brain to blocking DOPAMINE RECEPTORS. Chlorpromazine has several other actions and therapeutic uses, including as an antiemetic and in the treatment of intractable hiccup.
chlorpromazine : A substituted phenothiazine in which the ring nitrogen at position 10 is attached to C-3 of an N,N-dimethylpropanamine moiety.

Heart Arrest: Cessation of heart beat or MYOCARDIAL CONTRACTION. If it is treated within a few minutes, heart arrest can be reversed in most cases to normal cardiac rhythm and effective circulation.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"We concluded that he had died of pulmonary edema due to combined drug intoxication including proprietary antitussives and cold remedies."1.36A fatal case of potential chronic overdoses of prescribed and proprietary remedies. ( Nakagawa, T; Nishi, K; Takase, I; Yamamoto, Y, 2010)
"We report a case of iatrogenic cardiac arrest in a 2-month-old infant in whom a consulting resident administered too much MPC (10 times the expected dose) by the wrong route (intravenous instead of intramuscular)."1.31Iatrogenic cardiopulmonary arrest during pediatric sedation with meperidine, promethazine, and chlorpromazine. ( Brown, ET; Corbett, SW; Green, SM, 2001)
"We report a case of neuroleptic malignant syndrome where the catatonia clearly followed the administration of neuroleptics and where the neurovegetative disturbance was remarkably severe, including episodes of tracheal spasm, apnoea and episodes of bradycardia, and sinus arrest requiring insertion of a temporary external pacing wire."1.29Recurrent sinus arrest in association with neuroleptic malignant syndrome. ( Hamlin, GW; Ormerod, LP; Parry, AK; Saleem, PT, 1994)
