 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 7 Old ventricular arrhythmias amiodarone efficacy and safety analysis [Keywords:] amiodarone, aged ventricular arrhythmia, clinical efficacy, safety analysis Has been demonstrated for amiodarone (brand name: up to Dragon can reduce mortality in patients with cardiac arrhythmias (especially for patients with refractory arrhythmia). For the further improvement of amiodarone in the old role of ventricular arrhythmias, the author in 178 elderly patients with ventricular arrhythmias were treated with amiodarone for patients. 1 Subjects and methods 1.1 study October 2007 to October 2009 to elderly outpatients and hospitalized patients with ventricular arrhythmia in 178 cases. All the patients were diagnosed by ECG, clinical diagnostic criteria consistent with the literature (1). Aged 62 to 78 years (mean 63.1 + -2.5) years. paroxysmal ventricular tachycardia in which 54 cases of multi-source frequent premature ventricular contractions in 47 cases, 48 cases of bursts of ventricular premature beats, sustained ventricular tachycardia in 14 cases, premature ventricular contractions R on P 11 cases of premature ventricular contractions R on T phenomenon in 4. patients have varying degrees of premature beats (30 times / h) and have heart palpitations and other symptoms, heart rategt; 60 times / min. causes including heart disease, hypertensive heart disease , pulmonary heart disease, myocarditis, coronary heart disease. excluded the following cases: due to drugs (such as digitalis toxicity, etc.) caused by electrolyte disorders and acid-base balance disorders caused by ventricular arrhythmia, significant sinus bradycardia ( degrees, including atrioventricular block) were (1), iodine allergies or thyroid dysfunction, who bradycardia and atrioventricular block (2). randomly divided into two groups: treatment group, 90 patients in the control group of 88 patients. the two groups in gender, age, condition, cause not statistically signif
