Flecainide acetate is a new class I antiarrhythmic agent which slows atrial, A-V nodal and ventricular conduction velocity, and prolongs refractoriness of these structures (Borchard et al., 1982; Hodess et al., 1979). Recent studies with oral flecainide therapy suggested its high potential for suppression of ventricular tachycardia in humans (Anderson et al., 1981; Duff et al., 1981; Hodges et al., 1982). Its favorable pharmacokinetics with an average plasma half-time of about 20 hours allows in most patients twice daily dosing (Duff et al., 1981). Usually, the drug seemed to be well tolerated and side-effects, such as blurred vision, could be resolved with smaller but still effective doses (Duff et al., 1981). Actually, the ideal antiarrhythmic agent which represents a high degree of effectiveness, a low level of toxicity, a wide therapeutic range, and a prolonged antiarrhythmic action does not exist (Dreifus and Ogawa, 1977). In this report we describe a patient with flecainide-induced aggravation of ventricular tachycardia necessitating resuscitation because of severe hemodynamic deterioration.
醋酸氟卡尼是一种新型的Ⅰ类抗心律失常药物,它可减慢心房、房室结和心室的传导速度,并延长这些结构的不应期(博查德等人,1982年;霍德斯等人,1979年)。近期关于口服氟卡尼治疗的研究表明,它在抑制人类室性心动过速方面具有很高的潜力(安德森等人,1981年;达夫等人,1981年;霍奇斯等人,1982年)。其良好的药代动力学特性,平均血浆半衰期约为20小时,使得大多数患者可以每日给药两次(达夫等人,1981年)。通常,该药物似乎耐受性良好,副作用如视力模糊等,可以通过较小但仍然有效的剂量得到缓解(达夫等人,1981年)。实际上,代表高度有效性、低毒性、宽治疗范围和延长抗心律失常作用的理想抗心律失常药物并不存在(德赖弗斯和小川,1977年)。在本报告中,我们描述了一名因氟卡尼导致室性心动过速加重,因严重血流动力学恶化而需要复苏的患者。
