guanfacine and Arrhythmias, Cardiac

guanfacine has been researched along with Arrhythmias, Cardiac in 1 studies

Guanfacine: A centrally acting antihypertensive agent with specificity towards ADRENERGIC ALPHA-2 RECEPTORS.

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
"These results indicate that guanfacine causes a stabilizing effect on cardiac restitution that helps reconcile the clinical evidence for a lack of arrhythmia liability despite apparent increases in typical QT/QTc prolongation measures."5.19Use of ECG restitution (beat-to-beat QT-TQ interval analysis) to assess arrhythmogenic risk of QTc prolongation with guanfacine.
