Abstract
The antiarrhythmic properties of the Na+/H(+)-exchanger inhibitor zoniporide have been studied in experiments on rats. On the model of 45-min myocardial ischemia followed by 45-min reperfusion, the drug produced a significant (two-fold) decrease in the intensity of post-reperfusion arrhythmias (p < or = 0.05). On the model of 7-min ischemia followed by 5-min reperfusion, zoniporide prevented the development of ventricular fibrillation in 71.43% of cases as compared to control (p < or = 0.05). The drug also increased the threshold of electrical fibrillation by 69.23% and reduced the time to recovery of the heart rhythm by 37.85%.
Zoniporide effectively prevents ventricular fibrillation and increases the threshold of electrical fibrillation in rats after myocardial ischemia and reperfusion, improving heart rhythm recovery.
