The Effects of Nicorandil and Nifekalant, Which Were Injected into the Pericardial Space, for Transmural Dispersion of Repolarization in the Pig

Introduction: Some studies have reported that transmural dispersion of repolarization (TDR) is involved in the onset of ventricular arrhythmia. We investigated the effects of nicorandil (NIC) and nifekalant (NIF) injected into the pericardial space, on TDR and T waves in the pig. Methods and Results...
