Abstract
The article analyzes the case of the development of ventricular tachycardia and type 2 myocardial infarction (MI) in an 80-year-old patient with a history of coronary artery disease, MI and chronic heart failure. In 2020, the patient was diagnosed with ventricular extrasystole and started antiarrhythmic therapy with diethylamino propionylethoxycarbonylaminophenothiazine 150 mg per day and sotalol 160 mg per day. In 2022, the patient had an episode of clinical death due to ventricular tachycardia with successful resuscitation. A diagnosis of non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome was made, coronary angiography was performed, which did not reveal significant coronary stenosis. Upon further examination, the dynamics of biomarkers of myocardial necrosis confirmed the diagnosis of acute MI. In the analyzed case, the development of ventricular tachycardia and MI is most likely associated with the intake of diethylaminopropionylethoxycarbonylaminophenothiazine in combination with sotalol, prescribed in the presence of contraindications to their use.
期刊介绍:
The primary goals of the Journal are consolidation of information on scientific and practical achievements in pharmacotherapy and prevention of cardiovascular diseases and continuing education of cardiologists and internists. The scientific concept of the edition suggests the publication of information on current achievements in cardiology, the results of national and international clinical trials. The Journal publishes original articles on the results of clinical trials designed to study the effectiveness and safety of drugs, analysis of clinical practice and its compliance with national and international recommendations, expert s’ opinions on a wide range of cardiology issues, associated conditions and clinical pharmacology. There is a heading “Preventive cardiology and public health” in the Journal to stimulate research interest in this highly demanded area. Memories of the outstanding people in medicine including cardiology, which are of great interest to historians of medicine, are published in "Our Mentors” heading.
