Abstract

Electrophysiologic changes produced by intravenous administration of 0.6 mg Prindolol were studied in 16 subjects with normal impulse formation and conduction. The most important changes were: sinus bradycardia, prolongation of atrial refractory periods, depression of intranodal conduction and prolongation of A-V node refractory periods. Sinus node recovery time was unchanged, and sinoatrial conduction time was only slightly increased. Intraventricular conduction time and the refractory period of the His-Purkinje system and of the bundle branches were unchanged.
