Safety of Intravenous Diltiazem in Reduced Ejection Fraction Heart Failure with Rapid Atrial Fibrillation

Background and Objective Diltiazem is a nondihydropyridine calcium channel blocker that is used to control rapid ventricular response in patients who have atrial fibrillation or flutter. Diltiazem has a negative inotropic effect and may cause hemodynamic decompensation in patients with reduced eject...

description Background and Objective Diltiazem is a nondihydropyridine calcium channel blocker that is used to control rapid ventricular response in patients who have atrial fibrillation or flutter. Diltiazem has a negative inotropic effect and may cause hemodynamic decompensation in patients with reduced ejection fraction. This study evaluated outcomes in patients who had low ejection fraction and were treated with diltiazem. Methods This was a retrospective chart review in 635 patients who were hospitalized because of rapid atrial fibrillation and who were treated with intravenous diltiazem. Outcomes were evaluated for patients in two groups based on ejection fraction (EF): normal (EF ≥ 50%) and low EF (EF

Results There were no differences in frequency of hypotension, intensive care unit transfer, or in-hospital mortality between the two groups. There was a significantly higher frequency of acute kidney injury within 48 h after starting diltiazem in patients who had low (16 patients [10%]) compared with normal EF (17 patients [3.6%] P  = 0.002). Conclusions Intravenous diltiazem in patients who have decreased EF may be associated with increased risk of acute kidney injury, but not increased risk of hypotension, intensive care unit transfer, or in-hospital mortality.</description><identifier>ISSN: 1173-2563</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1179-1918</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1007/s40261-018-0631-7</identifier><identifier>PMID: 29478238</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>Cham: Springer International Publishing</publisher><subject>Cardiac arrhythmia ; Cardiomyopathy ; Cardiovascular disease ; Coronary vessels ; Ejection fraction ; Electrocardiography ; Epidemiology ; Heart attacks ; Heart failure ; Heart rate ; Intensive care ; Internal Medicine ; Kidneys ; Medicine ; Medicine &amp; Public Health ; Mortality ; Original Research Article ; Pharmacology/Toxicology ; Pharmacotherapy ; Studies</subject><ispartof>Clinical drug investigation, 2018-06, Vol.38 (6), p.503-508</ispartof><rights>Springer International Publishing AG, part of Springer Nature 2018</rights><rights>Copyright Springer Science &amp; Business Media Jun 2018</rights><lds50>peer_reviewed</lds50><woscitedreferencessubscribed>false</woscitedreferencessubscribed><citedby>FETCH-LOGICAL-c372t-55c528ca094ce13bdaac222066994c3f75e25da31eab92f67a268e01b176915c3</citedby><cites>FETCH-LOGICAL-c372t-55c528ca094ce13bdaac222066994c3f75e25da31eab92f67a268e01b176915c3</cites><orcidid>0000-0002-0842-2609</orcidid></display><links><openurl>$$Topenurl_article</openurl><openurlfulltext>$$Topenurlfull_article</openurlfulltext><thumbnail>$$Tsyndetics_thumb_exl</thumbnail><link.rule.ids>314,780,784,27924,27925</link.rule.ids><backlink>$$Uhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/29478238$$D View this record in MEDLINE/PubMed$$Hfree_for_read</backlink></links><search><creatorcontrib>Jandali, Mohamad Badr</creatorcontrib><title>Safety of Intravenous Diltiazem in Reduced Ejection Fraction Heart Failure with Rapid Atrial Fibrillation</title><title>Clinical drug investigation</title><addtitle>Clin Drug Investig</addtitle><addtitle>Clin Drug Investig</addtitle><description>Background and Objective Diltiazem is a nondihydropyridine calcium channel blocker that is used to control rapid ventricular response in patients who have atrial fibrillation or flutter.
