UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D008012	Lidocaine	A local anesthetic and cardiac depressant used as an antiarrhythmia agent. Its actions are more intense and its effects more prolonged than those of PROCAINE but its duration of action is shorter than that of BUPIVACAINE or PRILOCAINE.

D008801	Mexiletine	Antiarrhythmic agent pharmacologically similar to LIDOCAINE. It may have some anticonvulsant properties.	KO-1173,KO1173,KOE-1173,Mexiletene,Mexiletine Hydrochloride,Mexitil,Mexitil PL,Mexityl,Novo-Mexiletine,KO 1173,KOE 1173,KOE1173,Novo Mexiletine

D001949	Bretylium Compounds	Benzylammonium compounds with the formula Br-phenyl-CN+R3 that include BRETYLIUM TOSYLATE.	Compounds, Bretylium
D002319	Cardiovascular System	The HEART and the BLOOD VESSELS by which BLOOD is pumped and circulated through the body.	Circulatory System,Cardiovascular Systems,Circulatory Systems
D004206	Disopyramide	A class I anti-arrhythmic agent (one that interferes directly with the depolarization of the cardiac membrane and thus serves as a membrane-stabilizing agent) with a depressant action on the heart similar to that of guanidine. It also possesses some anticholinergic and local anesthetic properties.

D004594	Electrophysiology	The study of the generation and behavior of electrical charges in living organisms particularly the nervous system and the effects of electricity on living organisms.
D006321	Heart	The hollow, muscular organ that maintains the circulation of the blood.	Hearts
D006329	Heart Conduction System	An impulse-conducting system composed of modified cardiac muscle, having the power of spontaneous rhythmicity and conduction more highly developed than the rest of the heart.
