Reactive pulmonary hypertension after a switch operation. Successful treatment with glyceryl trinitrate.

Comparison with glyceryl trinitrate

The coronary haemodynamic effects of nifedipine and glyceryl trinitrate were compared in 22 patients undergoing investigations for suspected coronary artery disease. Myocardial blood flow was estimated by the coronary sinus thermodilution technique. In sinus rhythm nifedipine increased mean coronary sinus flow from 135 ml/min to 152 m/min, and reduced arterio-coronary sinus oxygen difference fr...

Glyceryl trinitrate before coronary angiography.

Sublingual glyceryl trinitrate as prehospital treatment for hypertension in Irukandji syndrome.

TO THE EDITOR: The Irukandji syndrome can cause severe hypertension (over 220/110 mmHg)1 and has caused two fatalities from cerebrovascular haemorrhage.2 There is no first aid treatment for the severe pain or hypertension, so developing an effective prehospital treatment is a priority. The venom from the jellyfish that causes Irukandji syndrome (Carukia barnesi) is a sodium-channel agonist whic...

Glyceryl trinitrate for the treatment of preterm labor.

OBJECTIVE This study was conducted to compare the tocolytic efficacy of glyceryltrinitrate (GTN) with that of magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) and to investigate serum nitric oxide metabolites before and after tocolysis. MATERIAL AND METHODS In total, 48 women between 27 and 34 weeks' gestation with threatened preterm labor and intact membranes were randomly allocated to receive either GTN or MgSO4 ...
