pindolol and Sick Sinus Node Syndrome

pindolol has been researched along with Sick Sinus Node Syndrome in 2 studies

Pindolol: A moderately lipophilic beta blocker (ADRENERGIC BETA-ANTAGONISTS). It is non-cardioselective and has intrinsic sympathomimetic actions, but little membrane-stabilizing activity. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmocopoeia, 30th ed, p638)
pindolol : A member of the class of indols which is the 2-hydroxy-3-(isopropylamino)propyl ether derivative of 1H-indol-4-ol.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The effects of pindolol treatment on mean heart rate (MHR) and the number of paced heart beats were investigated in a group of 12 patients, with frequency programmable pacemakers implanted to control symptomatic bradyarrhythmias resulting from sinus node dysfunction."5.06Intrinsic sympathomimetic activity (ISA) of pindolol in patients with sinus node dysfunction. ( Lie, KI; van den Berg, MP; van Gilst, WH; Viersma, JW, 1986)
"Beta blockers in patients with sick sinus syndrome (SSS) may prevent supraventricular arrhythmias, systemic hypertension and myocardial ischemia, but may cause excessive depression of sinus node function."2.67Comparison of effects of propranolol versus pindolol on sinus rate and pacing frequency in sick sinus syndrome. ( Antman, EM; Bhatia, S; Cantillon, C; Fish, RD; Friedman, PL; Lamas, GA; McGowan, N; Strickberger, SA, 1993)
