Implication

May offer acute rate support in bradycardia; leaves open role versus modern pacing in prospective trials.

Structured PICO

Does molar sodium lactate increase heart rate in patients with bradycardia and atrioventricular heart block?

Population

Patients with sinus bradycardia, partial and complete atrioventricular heart block, Stokes-Adams seizures, and terminal cardiac arrest, including relatively asymptomatic patients with complete atrioventricular heart block (heart rate 32 to 71 per minute).

Intervention

Molar sodium lactate

Outcome

Increase in heart ratesurrogate

Molar sodium lactate was evaluated for its clinical utility in increasing heart rate among patients with various forms of bradycardia and heart block.
