Digoxin overdose. Limitations of hemoperfusion-hemodialysis treatment

JAMA : the Journal of the American Medical Association
S E Warren, D D Fanestil

Abstract

We used charcoal hemoperfusion coupled with hemodialysis to treat a woman with massive digoxin ingestion complicated by hyperkalemia. Although dialysis controlled the serum potassium levels, hemoperfusion removed less than 1% of the total ingested dose. Hemoperfusion has a relatively minor impact on digoxin elimination and remains of unproved value in the therapy for digoxin overdose.

Atrial Fibrillation

Atrial fibrillation is a common arrhythmia that is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, particularly due to stroke and thromboembolism. Here is the latest research.

Arrhythmia

Arrhythmias are abnormalities in heart rhythms, which can be either too fast or too slow. They can result from abnormalities of the initiation of an impulse or impulse conduction or a combination of both. Here is the latest research on arrhythmias.
