Polyuria in Paroxysmal Tachycardia and Paroxysmal Atrial Flutter and Fibrillation.
نویسنده
چکیده
When Paul Wood spoke about this to the British Cardiac Society in 1961, we were impressed by the originality of his work on a subject that so many had noticed but failed to investigate. A few months before his death in July 1962, when I asked him if his paper was ready for the journal, he said that he had not yet been able to get all the evidence he hoped for to establish the full explanation. Unfortunately, he had not the time to complete this. I have, therefore, tried to set out as clearly as possible the stage that he had reached. Maurice Campbell

Plasma atrial natriuretic polypeptide concentrations during and after reversion of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardias.
Plasma concentrations of immunoreactive atrial natriuretic polypeptide were raised in 22 of 23 patients with paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia and in all seven patients with atrial flutter. Plasma concentrations of atrial natriuretic polypeptide rose soon after the onset of supraventricular tachycardia. A sample taken 30 minutes after reversion to sinus rhythm (pharmacological or non-phar...
متن کاملPlasma concentration of atrial natriuretic polypeptide in patients with atrial tachycardia.
To investigate the mechanisms of polyuria associated with tachycardia, we measured plasma concentrations of alpha-human atrial natriuretic polypeptide (alpha-hANP) and cGMP in 6 patients with paroxysmal tachycardia. Plasma concentrations of immunoreactive alpha-hANP and cGMP increased by +69% (p less than 0.05) and +100% (p less than 0.05), respectively, during both paroxysmal atrial tachycardi...
متن کاملSupraventricular tachycardia after orthotopic cardiac transplantation.
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to define the incidence, mechanisms, and management, including catheter ablation, of supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) in a large series of patients after orthotopic heart transplantation (OHT). BACKGROUND Supraventricular arrhythmias are frequently encountered after OHT, but their characteristics in this population have not been well established. M...
متن کاملCatheter ablation of atrial arrhythmias: state of the art.
Catheter ablation is at the forefront of the management of a range of atrial arrhythmias. In this Series paper, we discuss the underlying mechanisms and the current role of catheter ablation for the three most common atrial arrhythmias encountered in clinical practice: focal atrial tachycardia, atrial flutter, and atrial fibrillation. The mechanisms of focal atrial tachycardia and atrial flutte...
