Abstract: Amiodarone-induced hyperthyroidism is a known side effect of amiodarone treatment. In the pediatric population, long-term amiodarone treatment is rarely indicated because of its severe side effects including thyroid function impairment. Treatment is therefore restricted to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0282943
Abstract: Background Amiodarone is commonly used during therapeutic hypothermia (TH) following cardiac arrest due to ventricular arrhythmias. However, electrophysiological changes and proarrhythmic risk after amiodarone treatment have not yet been explored in TH. Methods Epicardial high-density… read more here.
