Electrophysiological effects of fentanyl, halothane and isoflurane on guinea-pig isolated ventricular myocytes

Ischaemic periods which lust only several minutes can result in a reversible reduction in cardiac contractility known as cardiac stunning. This is a potentially dangerous condition since arrhythmias and left ventricular failure are common in the stunned heart. The anaesthetics fentanyl, halothane a...
