Abstract

Experiments were conducted on dogs with determination of the ventricular fibrillation threshold in animals with intact heart and with myocardial infraction in case of trimecaine injection into the peridural space at the T1--T2 level. The fibrillation threshold was elevated both on account of resorptive trimecaine action and due to the block of the sympathetic heart innervation.

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.
