title: [Treatment of ventricular arrhythmias in patients with manifestations of heart failure].
abstract: A comparative study of the efficiency of digoxin and "pure" antiarrhythmic agents was carried out in 56 patients with ventricular arrhythmias and signs of circulatory insufficiency (CI). Digoxin had arrhythmogenic effect in 20% of the patients, which was twice as frequent in the marked CI group. "Pure" anti-arrhythmic agents were effective in 47% (ritmilen) to 71% (cordaron), and etmozin, in 63% of the patients, while adverse myocardial inotropic effect was only produced by ritmilen. Combined use of etmozin, ritmilen or cordaron with digoxin increases their antiarrhythmic efficiency.
