Abstract

1. The ED50 of acetyl strophanthidin for producing ventricular arrhythmias in normal dogs was 54.5 mug/kg intravenously.2. Doses up to and including those which caused ventricular tachycardia did not produce either atrial arrhythmias or significant aberration of A-V conduction.3. Although the classic digitalis-induced rate and e.c.g. waveform changes may appear after administration of acetyl strophanthidin, their presence or absence have no value in predicting the subsequent development of ventricular arrhythmias.
