hexamethonium and Arrhythmias, Cardiac

hexamethonium has been researched along with Arrhythmias, Cardiac in 15 studies

Hexamethonium: A nicotinic cholinergic antagonist often referred to as the prototypical ganglionic blocker. It is poorly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and does not cross the blood-brain barrier. It has been used for a variety of therapeutic purposes including hypertension but, like the other ganglionic blockers, it has been replaced by more specific drugs for most purposes, although it is widely used a research tool.

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
" To investigate the mechanisms by which bupivacaine may act within the CNS to produce cardiovascular toxicity, we studied four groups of halothane-anesthetized rabbits in which infusion of intracerebroventricular (icv) bupivacaine or intravenous (iv) phenylephrine resulted in dysrhythmias and hypertension."7.68Hexamethonium and midazolam terminate dysrhythmias and hypertension caused by intracerebroventricular bupivacaine in rabbits. ( Artu, AA; Bernards, CM, 1991)

"Ventricular arrhythmias, including Torsades de pointes in monkeys, were prevented in both species when HF oscillations were suppressed by autonomic blockade."1.42Short-term variability in QT interval and ventricular arrhythmias induced by dofetilide are dependent on high-frequency autonomic oscillations. ( Champeroux, P; Fowler, JS; Judé, S; Laigot-Barbé, C; Le Guennec, JY; Maurin, A; Richard, S; Sola, ML; Thireau, J, 2015)
"In many species arrhythmias induced by myocardial ischaemia appear to be in part dependent upon cardiac sympathetic nerves."1.30Cardiac transplantation does not effect ischaemia-induced arrhythmias in rats. ( Guo, P; Pugsley, MK; Walker, MJ; Yong, SL, 1999)
