Objective To study the efficacy and safety of ibutilide for AF and atrial flutter.Methods Thirty-two AF and atrial flutter patients with arrhythmia ≤3 months were randomly divided into ibutilide treatment group (n=17) and amiodarone treatment group (n=15).The patients in ibutilide treatment group were treated with 10 ml 5％ glucose injection containing 1 mg ibutilide,which was repeated after 10 min if it was ineffective and those in amiodarone treatment group were treated with 10 ml 5％ glucose injection containing 150 mg amiodarone,which was repeated after 10 min if it was ineffective.Results The total recovery rate of AF and atrial flutter was significantly higher in ibutilide treatment group than in amiodarone treatment group (64.7％ vs 40.0％,P＜0.05).The mean recovery time of AF and atrial flutter was significantly shorter in ibutilide treatment group than in amiodarone treatment group (29.28±12.57 min vs 70.59±16.83 min,P＜0.01).Conclusion Ibutilide can rapidly recover AF and atrial flutter with a high success rate and a reliable safety.The therapeutic effect of ibutilide is better than that of amiodarone for AF and atrial flutter.

Objective@#To investigate the effect of nicorandil on ventricular arrhythmia in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) treated with emergent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).@*Methods@#A total of 120 acute STEMI patients treated with emergent PCI in our hospital from January 2015 to June 2016 were randomly divided into control group and experiment group (n=60 each). Patients in both groups received conventional therapy.Patients in experiment group took 10 mg nicorandil orally before PCI and received oral nicorandil treatment (15 mg/d, three times daily) for 3 days.QT disperse(QTd), correct QTd(QTcd) and the occurrence rate of ventricular arrhythmia were compared between two groups.@*Results@#QTd at 6, 24, 48 and 72 hours((70.6±4.4), (67.2±5.3), (55.7±8.5), (48.2±8.2) ms, respectively) after PCI was significantly lower in the experiment group than those of control group ((77.1±7.1), (71.3±6.5), (65.1±8.1), (57.2±5.4) ms, all P<0.05). The level of QTd was also significantly lower in the experiment group at 6, 24, 48 and 72 hours((77.5±7.7), (67.7±8.6), (61.2±7.5), (52.9±8.4) ms, respectively) after PCI comared to those of control group ((88.6±8.1), (79.2±7.8), (74.4±7.4), (69.6±8.6) ms, all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of reperfusion arrhythmia during PCI procedure between the two groups.The prevalence of the ventricular premature beat in the experiment group (25/60, 41.7%) was significantly lower than in the control group(45/60, 75.0%) within 3 days after PCI(P<0.01), the prevalence of the no sustained ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation in the experiment group(6/60, 10.0%) was also significantly lower than in the control group (18/60, 30.0%, P<0.01) within 3 days after PCI.@*Conclusions@#Nicorandil use prior and post PCI could decrease the occurrence rate of ventricular arrhythmia in STEMI patients undergoing emergent PCI, and this effect might be related with reduced QTd and QTcd post medication.

Objective To explore the relationship of plasma level of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) with cardiovascular risk,the severity of coronary heart disease(CHD),and the short-term prognosis in patients with type 2 diabetes. Methods 154 patients with type 2 diabetes,of them 95 cases complicated with CHD and 65 with hyper-tension were selected in this study. The CHD patients were diveded into 3 groups: AMI(n=32), UAP(n=33) and SAP(n=30). The relationship of the plasma BNP levels with cardiovascular risks, with each coronary heart disea-ses,were observed. The patients were followed up for 6 months to study the predicting role of BNP on the death in pa-tients accompanied with CHD. Results The plasma BNP level was (397.34±217.79) ng/L, which was correlated with age, CRP, hypertension and CHD (r=0.631,0.672, 0.762,0.857, P<0.05 for each);the plasma BNP levels increased with age(r=0.896,P<0.01):(57.6±12.3) ng/L in patients <50 years old,(146.2±53.4)ng/L in patients 50≤and < 59 years old, (388.4±67.5) ng/in patients 60≤and < 69 years old, and (423.8±132.6) ng/L in patients≥70 years old (P<0.01 or P<0.05). The plasma BNP levels, was higher in patients with hyper-tension than that in patients without hypertension [(314.7±125.3) ng/L vs (136.8±98.7) ng/L, P<0.01];Higher in patients with CHD than that in patients without CHD [(425.03±200.80)ng/L vs (37.64±21.57) ng/L,P<0.01)]. The short-term prognosis of patients with CHD was correlated with the levels of BNP, and BNP levels≥485 ng/L may be an independent predicting factor for cardiac death within one month. Conclusions Plas-ma levels of BNP were associated with some cardiovascular risks,which may be one of biomarkers for cardiovascular risks in patient complicated with CHD.
