Abstract
SummaryAdministration of digitoxin prevented hypertrophy of the left ventricle of the rat during exposure to hypoxia. The right ventricle was not affected by the drug and showed a significant degree of hypertrophy. Presumably digitoxin greatly lessened left ventricular hypertrophy by increasing the capacity of cardiac muscle to do work.
