Antiarrhythmic and hemodynamic responses to adenosine triphosphate during infusion of epinephrine in dogs anesthetized with halothane. 1982

Y Z Sohn, and J C Hong, and R L Katz

The effects of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) on cardiovascular responses to epinephrine were evaluated in dogs anesthetized with halothane. The dose of epinephrine required to induce arrhythmias averaged 1.05 +/- 0.52 microgram/kg/min. The dose of ATP required to abolish these arrhythmias averaged 1.64 +/- 0.67 mg/kg/min. ATP had not only an antiarrhythmic effect but also antagonized epinephrine-induced increases in heart rate, systemic vascular resistance, mean arterial blood pressure, and further increased cardiac index. ATP had, however, no significant effect on epinephrine-induced increases in myocardial contractility.

D004562 Electrocardiography Recording of the moment-to-moment electromotive forces of the HEART as projected onto various sites on the body's surface, delineated as a scalar function of time. The recording is monitored by a tracing on slow moving chart paper or by observing it on a cardioscope, which is a CATHODE RAY TUBE DISPLAY. 12-Lead ECG,12-Lead EKG,12-Lead Electrocardiography,Cardiography,ECG,EKG,Electrocardiogram,Electrocardiograph,12 Lead ECG,12 Lead EKG,12 Lead Electrocardiography,12-Lead ECGs,12-Lead EKGs,12-Lead Electrocardiographies,Cardiographies,ECG, 12-Lead,EKG, 12-Lead,Electrocardiograms,Electrocardiographies, 12-Lead,Electrocardiographs,Electrocardiography, 12-Lead
D004837 Epinephrine The active sympathomimetic hormone from the ADRENAL MEDULLA. It stimulates both the alpha- and beta- adrenergic systems, causes systemic VASOCONSTRICTION and gastrointestinal relaxation, stimulates the HEART, and dilates BRONCHI and cerebral vessels. It is used in ASTHMA and CARDIAC FAILURE and to delay absorption of local ANESTHETICS.

D006221 Halothane A nonflammable, halogenated, hydrocarbon anesthetic that provides relatively rapid induction with little or no excitement. Analgesia may not be adequate. NITROUS OXIDE is often given concomitantly. Because halothane may not produce sufficient muscle relaxation, supplemental neuromuscular blocking agents may be required.
