Synopsis

Focusing on the control of cardiac rhythm, this text covers the basics of antiarrhythmic therapy and electrophysiology, and presents a discussion of findings in the field. It also covers the Vaughan Williams classes of antiarrhythmic agents; the breakdown of the class I agents into Ia, Ib and Ic categories; and an addition to the classifiction of type III agents, dividing them into those that have beta blocking effects and those that do not. In addition, the authors review the importance of this classification system and explain the problems inherent in the Sicilian Gambit system. Two chapters on the treatment of supraventricular and ventricular arrhythmias take basic pharmacology and clinical pharmacology principles and apply them to practical management of arrhythmias. Emphasis is placed on looking at drugs from a class effect, covering the toxicities and limitations of each group, allowing application in varied clinical settings.
