Hydralazine inhibits ventricular tachyarrhythmias in an acquired long QT rabbit model

Background: Some cardioactive vasodilating agents inhibit ventricular tachyarrhythmias (VT) associated with acquired long QT syndrome (LQT). We tested whether a vasodilator without direct cardiac effect can eliminate abnormal repolarization-related VT. Methods: The effect of hydralazine on the occur...
