nitroglycerin and Death, Sudden

nitroglycerin has been researched along with Death, Sudden in 21 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.

Death, Sudden: The abrupt cessation of all vital bodily functions, manifested by the permanent loss of total cerebral, respiratory, and cardiovascular functions.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" 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)
"Three patients with mitral valve prolapse, high grade ventricular arrhythmias and a strong family history of sudden death were studied utilizing continuous Ecg monitoring and intracardiac stimulation and recording techniques."1.26Nitrates and ectopic ventricular activity in mitral valve prolapse: clinical and experimental data. ( Brachmann, J; Krämer, B; Kübler, W; Pelzer, D; Senges, J; Zebe, H, 1979)
