flumazenil and Arrhythmias, Cardiac

flumazenil has been researched along with Arrhythmias, Cardiac in 7 studies

Flumazenil: A potent benzodiazepine receptor antagonist. Since it reverses the sedative and other actions of benzodiazepines, it has been suggested as an antidote to benzodiazepine overdoses.
flumazenil : An organic heterotricyclic compound that is 5,6-dihydro-4H-imidazo[1,5-a][1,4]benzodiazepine which is substituted at positions 3, 5, 6, and 8 by ethoxycarbonyl, methyl, oxo, and fluoro groups, respectively. It is used as an antidote to benzodiazepine overdose.

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.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Midazolam was used for anaesthesia in 20 patients undergoing cardioversion; 10 received flumazenil, which caused immediate rapid reversal of anaesthesia, and these patients maintained SpO2 greater than 95%, breathing air, within 5-10 min."2.67Midazolam sedation reversed with flumazenil for cardioversion. ( Fennelly, ME; Galletly, DC; Powell, H; Whitwam, JG, 1992)
"Midazolam was administered as a loading dose (1."1.29Effect of midazolam infusion and flumazenil administration on epinephrine arrhythmogenicity in dogs anesthetized with halothane. ( Agarwal, RK; Court, MH; Dodman, NH; Greenblatt, DJ; Kumar, MS, 1993)
"Midazolam was replaced by saline in the other 12."1.28Flumazenil in mixed benzodiazepine/tricyclic antidepressant overdose: a placebo-controlled study in the dog. ( Askenasi, R; Leduc, D; Lheureux, P; Vranckx, M, 1992)
" The drug was administered intramuscularly in ten dogs at a dosage of 10 mg/kg bwt of tiletamine and 10 mg/kg bwt of zolazepam and tested for its effects on hemodynamics, respiration, and the antagonistic effect of flumazenil."1.28[Anesthesia in dogs with the combination preparation Tilest 500].
