Article Synopsis
- A study investigated the effects of azimilide, an antiarrhythmic drug, on mortality in patients with weakened heart function after a heart attack (myocardial infarction) and low heart rate variability (HRV).
- The results showed no significant difference in overall mortality rates between patients taking azimilide and those on placebo, regardless of heart function or HRV levels.
- However, fewer patients in the azimilide group experienced atrial fibrillation, but there were slightly higher rates of specific side effects like torsade de pointes and severe neutropenia compared to the placebo group.
