Intravenous digoxin offers no substantial advantages over placebo in recent onset atrial fibrillation with respect to conversion, and provides weak rate control.
Acute myocardial infarction due to occlusion in the left coronary artery (LCA) is associated with greater risk for out-of-hospital VF compared to the RCA. The location of occlusion within LCA (LAD, LCx, proximal or distal), amount of myocardium at risk for necrosis and extent of CAD are not related to out-of-hospital VF.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
