Title: | Amiodarone and the development of ards after lung surgery | Authors: | VAN MIEGHEM, Walter COOLEN, Leo Malysse, I. Lacquet, L. M. Deneffe, G.J. Demedts, M. G. P. |
Issue Date: | 1994 | Publisher: | AMER COLL CHEST PHYSICIANS | Source: | CHEST, 105(6). p. 1642-1645 | Abstract: | An evaluation of amiodarone as prophylactic treatment for supraventricular tachyarrhythmias after pulmonary surgery was stopped because of a high incidence of the adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) after a pneumonectomy. Retrospective analysis of all cases of resection for pulmonary neoplasm in our hospital between 1987 and 1991 indicates that amiodarone may be implicated in the development of ARDS after lung surgery. | Notes: | UNIV ZIEKENHUIS GASTHUISBERG,DEPT PNEUMOL,LOUVAIN,BELGIUM.VANMIEGHEM, W, ST JANS ZIEKENHUIS,LIMBURGS HARTCENTRUM,SCHIEPSE BOX 3600,GENK,BELGIUM. | Keywords: | AMIODARONE; ARDS; ATRIAL DYSRHYTHMIAS; LUNG SURGERY | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/3620 | DOI: | 10.1378/chest.105.6.1642 | ISI #: | A1994NT06400008 | Type: | Journal Contribution |
