sotalol and Edema, Fetal

sotalol has been researched along with Edema, Fetal in 10 studies

Sotalol: An adrenergic beta-antagonist that is used in the treatment of life-threatening arrhythmias.
sotalol : A sulfonamide that is N-phenylmethanesulfonamide in which the phenyl group is substituted at position 4 by a 1-hydroxy-2-(isopropylamino)ethyl group. It has both beta-adrenoreceptor blocking (Vaughan Williams Class II) and cardiac action potential duration prolongation (Vaughan Williams Class III) antiarrhythmic properties. It is used (usually as the hydrochloride salt) for the management of ventricular and supraventricular arrhythmias.

" In the case of atrial flutters the pregnant woman is treated with sotalol administered orally and, if no sinus rhythm is obtained nor a reduced ventricular rhythm occurs, subsequently with digoxin."4.81[Protocols for the treatment of supraventricular tachycardias in the fetus]. ( Ambachtsheer, EB; Meijboom, EJ; Oudijk, MA; Stoutenbeek, P, 2001)
"Fetal hydrops was seen in 20 patients; 17 received maternal therapy, 2 were delivered and 1 was not treated because it had a severe nontreatable cardiac malformation."2.69Atrial flutter in the perinatal age group: diagnosis, management and outcome. ( Benatar, AA; Brenner, JI; Kleinman, CS; Lisowski, LA; Meijboom, EJ; Soyeur, DJ; Stoutenbeek, P; Verheijen, PM, 2000)
"Fetal arrhythmias are common, and they may resolve spontaneously in majority of the cases."1.56Fetal arrhythmias: diagnosis and treatment. ( Yuan, SM, 2020)
"Fetal hydrops was present in six patients (five with SVT, one with AF)."1.39Sotalol as first-line treatment for fetal tachycardia and neonatal follow-up. ( Freund, MW; Manten, GT; Oudijk, MA; Pistorius, L; ter Heide, H; van der Heijden, LB, 2013)
"Digoxin therapy was initiated and sotalol was later added for new-onset hydrops."1.35Can digoxin and sotalol therapy for fetal supraventricular tachycardia and hydrops be successful? A case report. ( Gonzalez, JM; Merriman, JB; Rychik, J; Ural, SH, 2008)
" The mortality rate in this study was 19% (4 of 21 fetuses; 3 had SVT and 1 had AF); 3 deaths occurred just days after the initiation of sotalol therapy, and 1 occurred after a dosage increase."1.31Sotalol in the treatment of fetal dysrhythmias.
