Monitoring of respiratory function before and after cardiopulmonary bypass using side-stream spirometry.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE:Amiodarone is very effective against a variety of dysrhythmias but has poor pharmacodynamic properties and many undesired side-effects. Its short- and rapid-acting derivative E 047/1 may circumvent some of these drawbacks. It is easier to titrate while retaining the high efficacy of amiodarone ...
