Alexis KnightHOST
24:05
At Cynthia's lab, the verdict doubles Ruth's certainty.
Alexis KnightHOST
24:08
Digoxin residue in the mug in measurable amounts, not enough for a full dose but unmistakably present.
Alexis KnightHOST
24:14
Avery was not prescribed anything similar.
Alexis KnightHOST
24:17
Ruth pours through his health file again.
Alexis KnightHOST
24:23
She looks into plant-grade digoxin, sometimes purchased for advanced high school biology or chemistry classes, used to stimulate demonstrations of toxin effects on plant cells.
Alexis KnightHOST
24:34
Her internet search turns up one school in the region years back where stored chemicals were reported missing, digoxin among them.
Alexis KnightHOST
24:42
Digoxin is neither common enough for accidental contamination nor legal to share without careful logbooks.
Alexis KnightHOST
24:48
Ruth calls the school's main office.
Muxue LiGUEST
13:42
So these can reduce your risk of developing post-op SVTs as a whole, but they actually might increase the incidence of AFib.
Muxue LiGUEST
13:52
Digoxin is another one.
Muxue LiGUEST
13:54
So you'll see digoxin is not useful for prophylaxis, but later on you'll see that's actually quite useful for management and those who develop AFib.
Muxue LiGUEST
14:04
But for prophylaxis, it actually showed increased mortality in some small observational trials.

Muxue LiGUEST
23:29
So easiest ones in our anesthetic cart would be Esmolol.
Muxue LiGUEST
23:33
You can also use Metoprolol, Ditalizum, you'll have to, I imagine, get from pharmacy if it's not on the PIXIS.
Muxue LiGUEST
23:39
And then Digoxin is also a good option here, especially if there is LV dysfunction present as well.
Muxue LiGUEST
23:48
And then again, rhythm control is more so for AFib that's refractory to rate control.

Cardiac Antiarrhythmic Drugs: Classification, Mechanisms, Effects and Side Effects

A M ThirugnanamGUEST
26:58
And combining intravenous verapamil with intravenous beta blockers can cause profound bradycardia and asystole.
A M ThirugnanamGUEST
27:09
Now the drugs that don't fit neatly, digoxin, adenosine and magnesium.
A M ThirugnanamGUEST
27:15
Digoxin inhibits the sodium potassium pump in the heart cell membrane, which increases intracellular calcium and has a mild positive inotropic effect.
A M ThirugnanamGUEST
27:29
Its antiarrhythmic action comes mainly from increasing vagal tone, which slows the AV node.
A M ThirugnanamGUEST
27:37
It is used for rate control in atrial fibrillation, especially in patients with heart failure or low blood pressure, often combined with a beta blocker.
A M ThirugnanamGUEST
27:51
It controls the resting heart rate, but is less effective during exercise.
A M ThirugnanamGUEST
27:57
The RATE-AF trial showed that low-dose digoxin was comparable to bisoprolol for symptoms in elderly patients with permanent atrial fibrillation, with fewer side effects.
A M ThirugnanamGUEST
28:13
Digoxin has a narrow therapeutic window, and toxicity is common, especially in elderly patients with kidney impairment, low potassium or magnesium, and with interacting drugs such as amiodarone verapamil and some antibiotics.

Safe Cardiac Drug Selection During Pregnancy and Breastfeeding

A M ThirugnanamGUEST
15:38
For prevention of recurrent supraventricular tachycardia, beta1-selective blockers, such as metoprolol or bisoprolol, are first line.
A M ThirugnanamGUEST
15:49
Digoxin is an alternative, particularly when beta blockers aren't tolerated.
A M ThirugnanamGUEST
15:56
If these fail, in women without structural heart disease, flecainide or propafenone can be used.
A M ThirugnanamGUEST
16:04
Flecainide, in particular, has a reasonable safety record and is even used to treat fetal supraventricular tachycardia by giving it to the mother.

How to Read an ECG — A Systematic Approach for Students, Doctors, Fellows, Nurses and Critical Care Teams

A M ThirugnanamGUEST
24:55
Horizontal or down-sloping ST depression of half a millimeter or more in two contiguous leads suggests subendocardial ischemia.
A M ThirugnanamGUEST
25:03
But first ask, is this ST depression reciprocal to elevation somewhere else? Is it the mirror of a posterior infarction? Or is it secondary, caused by left ventricular hypertrophy with strain, by a bundle branch block, or by digoxin? Digoxin produces a characteristic sagging, scooped ST segment.
A M ThirugnanamGUEST
25:22
Some call it the reverse tick or Salvador Dali's mustache.
A M ThirugnanamGUEST
25:26
That is the digoxin effect, not toxicity.
Candice DeLongHOST
6:17
Critical care, night shift, a place where the line between life and death was already impossibly thin, and where the drugs he had access to could make murder look like nature taking its course.
Candice DeLongHOST
6:31
Digoxin, insulin, epinephrine, medications that belonged in a hospital, medications that, in the right circumstances, could kill, which meant something even more chilling.
Candice DeLongHOST
6:43
Sometimes Cullen did not necessarily have to know exactly who would die.
Candice DeLongHOST
6:49
He could simply put the poison into the system and wait.
Candice DeLongHOST
8:41
"He stuck me." The next day, Helen Dean was dead, and when investigators later looked at her death, there was a disturbing detail.
Candice DeLongHOST
8:52
Three elderly women at Warren Hospital had died with digoxin in their systems.
Candice DeLongHOST
8:59
Digoxin is a legitimate heart medication.
Candice DeLongHOST
9:02
In small, controlled doses, it slows the heart rate and steadies a failing heart, but in large doses, it turns on the patient.

Digoxin, watch the heart and the potassium.
speaker_0NARRATOR
0:04
Digoxin increases cardiac contractility, meaning the strength of the heart's contraction while slowing electrical conduction through AV or atrioventricular node Digoxin has a narrow therapeutic index, meaning the difference between a therapeutic dose and a toxic dose can be relatively small.

Before administering digoxin, assess the apical pulse for one full minute.
speaker_0NARRATOR

For adults, it can commonly test the nursing rules to hold digoxin and notify the provider if the pulse is below 60 beats per minute, although the patient's prescribed parameters always take priority.
