Journal ArticleDOI
Prescribing Amiodarone: An Evidence-Based Review of Clinical Indications
TL;DR: Amiodarone should be used with close follow-up in patients who are likely to derive the most benefit, namely those with atrial fibrillation and left ventricular dysfunction, those with acute sustained ventricular arrhythmias, those about to undergo cardiac surgery, and those with implantable cardioverter-defibrillators and symptomatic shocks.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of prophylactic anticoagulation for direct current cardioversion in patients with atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter
TL;DR: Prophylactic anticoagulation is pivotal in patients undergoing elective direct current cardioversion for atrial fibrillation, even those with atrialfibrillation of less than 1 week's duration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Current concepts in the mechanisms and management of drug-induced QT prolongation and torsade de pointes
TL;DR: Drug-induced long QT syndrome is characterized by a prolonged corrected QT interval (QTc) and increased risk of a polymorphic ventricular tachycardia known as torsade de pointes (TdP).

Elena B. Sgarbossa,Sergio L. Pinski,JamesD . Maloney,TonyW . Simmons,Bruce L. Wilkoff,Richard G. Trohman +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors study the long-term incidence and independent predictors for chronic atrial fibrillation and stroke in patients with sinus syndrome, adjusting for differences in baseline clinical variables with multivariate analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chronic atrial fibrillation and stroke in paced patients with sick sinus syndrome. Relevance of clinical characteristics and pacing modalities.
Elena B. Sgarbossa,Sergio L. Pinski,James D. Maloney,Tony W. Simmons,Bruce L. Wilkoff,Lon W. Castle,Richard G. Trohman +6 more
TL;DR: Development of chronic atrial fibrillation and stroke in paced patients with sick sinus syndrome are strongly determined by clinical variables and secondarily by the pacing modality.
