Ridryder 911 Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 Came across an interesting article on Heart Failure and poor ejection. Good reading for those in EMT & Paramedic school. Found it interesting the author does not recommend Digoxin/Lanoxin in women.. Actually this was in a non-emergency mag... http://www.geri.com/geriatrics/data/articl...339/article.pdf R/R 911
AnthonyM83 Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 Good article. Hope more people start being prescribed those medications. I did a search on the increased mortality rate fo women on digoxin thing. This artice has some background info and speculation on it (it's just basic About.com info article): http://heartdisease.about.com/library/weekly/aa110402a.htm
