metaproterenol and Death, Sudden, Cardiac

metaproterenol has been researched along with Death, Sudden, Cardiac in 1 studies

Metaproterenol: A beta-2 adrenergic agonist used in the treatment of ASTHMA and BRONCHIAL SPASM.
orciprenaline : A racemate composed of equimolar amounts of (R)- and (S)-orciprenaline. Used (as its sulfate salt) to relax the airway muscles and improve breathing for patients suffering from asthma or bronchitis.
5-[1-hydroxy-2-(isopropanylamino)ethyl]benzene-1,3-diol : A member of the class of resorcinols bearing an additional 1-hydroxy-2-(isopropanylamino)ethyl substituent at position 5 of resorcinol itself.

Death, Sudden, Cardiac: Unexpected rapid natural death due to cardiovascular collapse within one hour of initial symptoms. It is usually caused by the worsening of existing heart diseases. The sudden onset of symptoms, such as CHEST PAIN and CARDIAC ARRHYTHMIAS, particularly VENTRICULAR TACHYCARDIA, can lead to the loss of consciousness and cardiac arrest followed by biological death. (from Braunwald's Heart Disease: A Textbook of Cardiovascular Medicine, 7th ed., 2005)

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"These findings demonstrate that, in Brugada syndrome, spontaneous or ajmaline-induced changes in the surface ECG may be paralleled by significant variations in the right ventricular endocardial electrogram that may result in ICD malfunction."3.70Spatial and temporal heterogeneity of depolarization and repolarization may complicate implantable cardioverter defibrillator therapy in Brugada syndrome.
