Haemodynamic effects of practolol.
The acute haemodynamic effects of administration of 5 mg and 20 mg practolol were studied at cardiac catheterization. In 6 patients with mitral valve disease and atrialfibrillation, there was a dose-related reduction in ventricular rate, with a corresponding increase in stroke volume, while cardiac output, pulmonary arterial, aortic, and left ventricular end-diastolic pressures were unaltered. ...
متن کاملHemodynamic effects of practolol at rest and during exercise.
SUMMARY The effects of practolol, a new beta-adrenergic blocking agent, and propranolol were studied in volunteers. At rest, practolol caused a very small reduction in cardiac index (CI), 190 ml, P < 0.25, and preejection period (PEP) lengthened 3 msec, P < 0.025. In contrast, propranolol caused a reduction in CI of 770 ml, P < 0.001. Heart rate (HR) slowed 10 beats/min, P < 0.001, stroke volum...
متن کاملUntoward effects associated with practolol administration: oculomucocutaneous syndrome.
Keratoconjunctivitis sicca, conjunctival scarring, fibrosis, metaplasia, and shrinkage developed in 27 patients as an adverse reaction to practolol. Rashes, nasal and mucosal ulceration, fibrous or plastic peritonitis, pleurisy, cochlear damage, and secretory otitis media also occurred in some cases.

Background and purpose: Formaldehyde is used in operating rooms to disinfect and sterilize surgical instruments. Inhalation of formaldehyde gas causes various respiratory complications in people. Awareness on the use of formaldehyde can prevent many complications. This study was conducted to determine the level of knowledge and practice about formaldehyde exposure in the staff and students of t...
متن کاملSide Effects of Shot Peening on Fatigue Crack Initiation Life
Shot peening beneficial effects on fatigue life of mechanical components are well known. However, there are some reports in the literature that indicate inappropriate shot peening parameters tend to reduce the fatigue life. It is therefore, the purpose of this study to find a logical quantitative justification for these observations. Using finite element method, a dynamic elastic-plastic simula...
