spironolactone and Ventricular Dysfunction

spironolactone has been researched along with Ventricular Dysfunction in 5 studies

Spironolactone: A potassium sparing diuretic that acts by antagonism of aldosterone in the distal renal tubules. It is used mainly in the treatment of refractory edema in patients with congestive heart failure, nephrotic syndrome, or hepatic cirrhosis. Its effects on the endocrine system are utilized in the treatments of hirsutism and acne but they can lead to adverse effects. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p827)
spironolactone : A steroid lactone that is 17alpha-pregn-4-ene-21,17-carbolactone substituted by an oxo group at position 3 and an alpha-acetylsulfanyl group at position 7.

Ventricular Dysfunction: A condition in which HEART VENTRICLES exhibit impaired function.

" This study's aim was to determine whether chronic spironolactone treatment prevents formation of local electrical activation delays in the cardiomyopathic ventricle by attenuating inflammatory pathways and myocardial fibrosis."7.79Spironolactone improves the arrhythmogenic substrate in heart failure by preventing ventricular electrical activation delays associated with myocardial interstitial fibrosis and inflammation. ( Esposito, CT; Jeyaraj, D; Lu, Y; Stambler, BS; Varahan, S, 2013)
"We documented chronic ventricular arrhythmias in a first group of 58 rats after myocardial infarction (MI), then assessed the effects of spironolactone and fosinopril on morphological indexes and arrhythmias in a second group (n = 33)."7.71Effects of spironolactone and fosinopril on the spontaneous and chronic ventricular arrhythmias in a rat model of myocardial infarction.
