  • Effects of Calcium Chelation on Digitalis-Induced Cardiac Arrhythmias by Paul Szekely and N
    Br Heart J: first published as 10.1136/hrt.25.5.589 on 1 September 1963. Downloaded from Brit. Heart J., 1963, 25, 589. EFFECTS OF CALCIUM CHELATION ON DIGITALIS-INDUCED CARDIAC ARRHYTHMIAS BY PAUL SZEKELY AND N. A. WYNNE From the Cardiovascular Department, Newcastle General Hospital, and the Department ofPhysiology, King's College, University of Durham Received November 19, 1962 Several studies have already shown that cardiac arrhythmias caused by digitalis can be abolished by the induction of hypocalcaemia (Page and Real, 1955; Smith and Grinnell, 1955; Gubner and Kallman, 1957; Kabakow and Brothers, 1958; Surawicz et al., 1959; Cohen et al., 1959; Rosenbaum, Mason, and Seven, 1960; Surawicz, 1960; Soffer, Toribara, and Sayman, 1961). The rationale of inducing hypocalcemia as an anti-arrhythmic measure is based on experimental and clinical obser- vations relating to the direct myocardial action of calcium and to the interaction between calcium, potassium, and digitalis. Low calcium concentration decreases myocardial irritability (Brooks et al., 1955) and it also increases the intracellular potassium concentration (Rosenbaum et al., 1960). There is also a synergistic action between calcium and digitalis, which was observed in the presence of digitalis intoxication (Nalbandian et al., 1957). The present study was undertaken copyright. in order to assess the value of induced hypocalcemia in the management of cardiac arrhythmias caused by digitalis. MATERIAL AND METHODS Forty-eight experiments were carried out under general aneesthesia on 46 cats and 2 dogs. Cardiac arrhythmia was induced by the intravenous administration of tincture of digitalis as previously described http://heart.bmj.com/ (Szekely and Wynne, 1951).

  • How to Take Your Phosphate Binders
    How to take your phosphate binders Information for renal patients Oxford Kidney Unit Page 2 What are phosphate binders? To reduce the amount of phosphate you absorb from your food you may have been prescribed a medicine called a phosphate binder. Phosphate binders work by binding (attaching) to some of the phosphate in food. This will reduce the amount of phosphate being absorbed into your blood stream. A list of phosphate binders and how to take them is shown below. Phosphate binder How to take it Calcichew (calcium carbonate) Chew thoroughly 10-15 minutes before or immediately before food Renacet (calcium acetate) Phosex (calcium acetate) Osvaren (calcium acetate and magnesium carbonate) Swallow whole after the first Renagel 2-3 mouthfuls of food (sevelemer hydrochloride) Renvela tablets (sevelemer carbonate) Alucaps (aluminium hydroxide) Renvela powder Dissolve in 60ml of water and (sevelemer carbonate) take after the first 2-3 mouthfuls of food Fosrenol tablets Chew thoroughly towards the (lanthanum carbonate) end/immediately after each meal Fosrenol powder Mix with a small amount of (lanthanum carbonate) food and eat immediately Velphoro Chew thoroughly after the first (sucroferric oxyhydroxide) 2-3 mouthfuls The phosphate binder you have been prescribed is: ……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. Page 3 How many phosphate binders should I take? You should follow the dose that has been prescribed for you. Your renal dietitian can advise how best to match your phosphate binders to your meal pattern, as well as which snacks require a phosphate binder. What happens if I forget to take my phosphate binder? For best results, phosphate binders should be taken as instructed.

The tests reported herein were exploratory studies to develop information that could be used in considering the establishment of tolerances. Until such tolerances are announced, lindane, methoxychlor, or ryania protective treatments should not be used. A tolerance of 2 p. p.m. for methoxychlor in grain permits the spraying of bin walls and some surface applications, but is not high enough to cover protective treat- ments in the sense considered here.
