nitroglycerin and Cardiac Death

nitroglycerin has been researched along with Cardiac Death in 6 studies

Nitroglycerin: A volatile vasodilator which relieves ANGINA PECTORIS by stimulating GUANYLATE CYCLASE and lowering cytosolic calcium. It is also sometimes used for TOCOLYSIS and explosives.
nitroglycerol : A nitrate ester that is glycerol in which nitro group(s) replace the hydrogen(s) attached to one or more of the hydroxy groups.
nitroglycerin : A nitroglycerol that is glycerol in which the hydrogen atoms of all three hydroxy groups are replaced by nitro groups. It acts as a prodrug, releasing nitric oxide to open blood vessels and so alleviate heart pain.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"A warm ischemic period with concomitant reperfusion injury is a major limiting factor in the transplantation of lungs retrieved from NHBDs."5.33Nitroglycerin reperfusion reduces ischemia-reperfusion injury in non-heart-beating donor lungs. ( Egan, TM; Hoffmann, SC; Sadoff, JD; Schlidt, SA; Sevala, M, 2006)
" Univariate analysis of baseline clinical and electrocardiographic characteristics indicates that a history of congestive heart failure, cardiomegaly, angina pectoris, multiple myocardial infarctions and therapy with digitalis and nitroglycerin were more common in those who died than in survivors, regardless of the timing of death."3.67Timing, mechanism and clinical setting of witnessed deaths in postmyocardial infarction patients. ( Canner, P; Friedman, L; Goldstein, S; Hutchinson, R; Romhilt, D; Schlant, R; Sobrino, R; Verter, J; Wasserman, A, 1984)
"Donation after circulatory death (DCD) offers a potential additional source of cardiac allografts."1.40Increasing the tolerance of DCD hearts to warm ischemia by pharmacological postconditioning. ( Dhital, KK; Doyle, A; Feneley, MP; Gao, L; Graham, RM; Harvey, RP; Hicks, M; Iyer, A; Jabbour, A; Jansz, PC; Jayewardene, D; Kumarasinghe, G; Macdonald, PS; Rao, P; Wan, B, 2014)
