paroxysmal atrial tachyarrhythmia

    Update Comments[Top] [Nav]
  • AV nodal re-entrant tachycardia was most likely arrhythmia to cause polyuria. It was also the one most likely to raise atrial pressure. [101]
  • If high levels of natriuretic peptides are a result of left ventricular dysfunction, as this paper reports, then we can explain Wood's observation that polyuria does not follow tachycardia when left ventricular dysfunction is present. [107]
  • Editorial on the McDonagh paper. [108]
