title: [Comparative effectiveness of class I anti-arrhythmia drugs and the algorithms of their selection in patients with ventricular arrhythmia].
abstract: The efficacy of 7 well-known Class I antiarrhythmic agents were retrospectively and by+crossover compared in 2 groups of patients treated in hospital in different years for ventricular arrhythmias. Class IC agents proved to be the most potent in the two groups of patients. The following algorithm is proposed to choose Class I agents: if quinidine or mexiletine is beneficial in the same patients, the other drugs will be also effective. If disopyramide fails to be beneficial, allapinin , ethacizine , propaphenon will be the most effective. When allapinin produces effects, ethacizine and propaphenon show their highest potency, but when each of them fails, a combination of antiarrhythmic agents should be used.
