Abstract |
Premature ventricular contractions are relatively often encountered in patients after surgical treatment of ischaemic heart disease. Mercurascan (MSC), given at 0.05 mg/kg of body weight, favourably affected both the incidence and duration of arrhythmia. Unlike other antiarrhythmics, MSC did not affect the heart rate nor blood pressure. Postoperative treatment of ventricular arrhythmia with MSC is a promising procedure and merits further clinical and experimental investigation.
