sotalol and Emergencies

sotalol has been researched along with Emergencies in 2 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.

Emergencies: Situations or conditions requiring immediate intervention to avoid serious adverse results.

"Atrial flutter is most often arising from a macroreentry circuit in the right atrium or around scar tissue in case or previous cardiothoracic surgery."2.43[Atrial flutter and fibrillation]. ( Scharf, C, 2005)
"Adenosine has been well studied as a mainstay treatment, but the methods of adenosine administration have not been very well delineated."1.38Intraosseous infusion is unreliable for adenosine delivery in the treatment of supraventricular tachycardia. ( Goodman, IS; Lu, CJ, 2012)
