[Serum glycoside concentration and digoxin intoxication].
Serum digoxin levels, estimated by radioimmuno assay, technique, and the pattern of cardiac arrhythmias due to digoxin intoxication seem to be correlated in cases with high serum digoxin levels. The prognostic value of  those correlations is demonstrated and discussed. Serial observations of the course of cardiac arrhythmias under the suspicion of digoxin intoxication together with blood level measurements allow to introduce more objective criteria in clinical management of poor risk patients receiving digoxin.
