Why the study?
Does infusion of purified Fab fragments of ovine digoxin-specific antibodies reverse advanced digoxin toxicity in a patient with severe intoxication?
Does infusion of purified Fab fragments of ovine digoxin-specific antibodies reverse advanced digoxin toxicity in a patient with severe intoxication?
Purified digoxin-specific Fab fragments rapidly and safely reversed life-threatening advanced digoxin toxicity, including intractable hyperkalemia and AV block, in a severe overdose case.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May support Fab use in severe digoxin toxicity; single case leaves open need for controlled confirmation.
Smith et al. (1976) studied this question.
