Comparison of posttransplant outcomes in patients with no, acute, or chronic amiodarone use before heart transplantation
BACKGROUND: Major concerns about the safety of pretransplant amiodarone use have been raised. As a result of its long half-life, the cardiac allograft is exposed to amiodarone posing potential risks such as bradycardia, requirement for pacemaker implantation, or increased mortality after heart trans...
