Cardiovascular disorders cardiac arrest

Hemodynamic changes after the topical ocular use of beta-blockers sometimes include only small reductions in heart rate and resting pulse rate and an insignificant reduction in blood pressure. However, patients with cardiovascular disorders, especially those with an irregular heart rate and dysrhythmias, are certainly at risk (SEDA-4, 339). Bradycardia, cardiac arrest, heart block, hypotension, palpitations, syncope, and cerebral ischemia and stroke can occur (356). Rebound tachycardia has been reported after withdrawal of ophthalmic timolol (88,357). Continuous 24-hour monitoring of blood pressure has shown that beta-blocker eye-drops for glaucoma can increase the risk of nocturnal arterial hjq>otension (358). [Pg.466]

Cardiovascular Cardiac toxicity due to chronic chloroquine use includes conduction disorders, congestive heart failure, prolongation of the QT interval, myocardial hypertrophy, and restrictive cardiomyopathy. Third degree atrioventricular block and sudden cardiac arrest due to ventricular fibrillation caused by chloroquine, unusual reactions, have been reported [6" ]. [Pg.568]

HEART AND BLOOD VESSEL DISORDERS. Many of the ideas about heart disease which have been popularized by the mass media are limited to the dramatic aspects of blood clots, cardiac arrest, clogging of the blood vessels with plaques, excruciating pain, and sudden death. However, these tispects represent only the later stages of the disease. Detection and treatment of the early stages may forestall the later stages for a long time. Hence, it is worthwhile to consider the various aspects of the cardiovascular disorders that follow. [Pg.542]
