ACT Heart failure remains a significant health challenge globally, influencing millions of individuals and imposing a considerable burden on healthcare systems. Factors influencing heart failure include Cardiac remodeling, neuro hormonal activation, impaired contractility as well as ejection fraction, ventricular dysfunction as well as chamber dilation, inflammatory as well as oxidative stress, endothelial dysfunction and microbial dysfunction. Finally it is concluded that heart failure is a complex syndrome resulting from multiple pathophysiological mechanisms.
Antiarrhythmic drugs play a key role regarding abnormal heart rhythms. Anti-arrhythmic drugs are divided into different classes dependent on their primary mechanism of action. These drugs are regarded as into four main categories such as class I (sodium channel blockers), class II(beta _ blockers), class III (potassium channel blockers) and class IV (calcium channel blockers). Class I anti arrhythmics specifically act on sodium channels, which play a role in the initiation and conduction of action potentials particularly in Cardiac cells. Class II anti arrhythmics act by decreasing the effects of adrenaline on the heart. Class III antiarrhythmics affect potassium channels and carry on the repolarization phase of the Cardiac action potential. Potential class IV antiarthmics stop calcium influx during depolarization and result in acdecrement in the heart rate and the forcec of contraction. Finally it is concluded that anti arrhythmic drugs play a critical role in managing various vtyoes of arrhythmias.
In most cases, Hepatitis B causes both inflammation and infection. Chronic cases result in irreversible liver damage as the virus attacks the liver over time without being noticed. The authors provide information regarding symptoms, early symptoms, diagnosis and treatment.
Acute and chronic hypoxia results in unconsciousness. Brain death happens immediately without proper treatment. Hypoxia activates Juxta glomerular (JG) apparatus of kidneys and enhances the secretion of erythroietin which in turn activates the red bone marrow to enhance the RBC count. Hypoxia enhances the rate and force of contraction of heart, cardiac output (COP) as well as blood pressure. Hypoxia enhances the respiratory because of the stimulation of chemoreceptor reflex.
Alzheimers disease is a neuro degenerative disorder. Medications namely done penile, galantamine and rivastigmine increase the levels of acetyl choline, a neurotransmitter that plays a critical role particularly in memory and learning. By stopping the enzymes that break down acetyl choline, these drugs increase communication between nerve cells in the brain. NMDA receptor antagonist that is meantime is also used in the treatment of Alzheimers disease.
The new edition of this popular, well-established textbook addresses the expanding role of the pharmacist in treating patients. It covers treatment of common diseases as well as other medical, therapeutic and patient related issues. Written by both pharmacists and clinicians to reflect a team approach, it offers an in-depth analysis of drug therapy in the treatment of disease, relying on input from the pharmacist as a member of the "team" in hospital and community settings. Information is easy to locate in a logical format organized primarily by systems and disorders.
In recent years our understanding of molecular mechanisms of drug action and interindividual variability in drug response has grown enormously. Meanwhile, the practice of anesthesiology has expanded to the preoperative environment and numerous locations outside the OR. Anesthetic Pharmacology: Basic Principles and Clinical Practice, 2nd edition, is an outstanding therapeutic resource in anesthesia and critical care: Section 1 introduces the principles of drug action, Section 2 presents the molecular, cellular and integrated physiology of the target organ/functional system and Section 3 reviews the pharmacology and toxicology of anesthetic drugs. The new Section 4, Therapeutics of Clinical Practice, provides integrated and comparative pharmacology and the practical application of drugs in daily clinical practice. Edited by three highly acclaimed academic anesthetic pharmacologists, with contributions from an international team of experts, and illustrated in full colour, this is a sophisticated, user-friendly resource for all practitioners providing care in the perioperative period.
