Interventions

Digoxin

Find Digoxin in Rate & rhythm. Na⁺/K⁺-ATPase inhibition increases intracellular calcium; vagal effects slow AV-nodal conduction. Renally cleared with a narrow therapeutic index.

Overview

Open Interventions → Rate & rhythm. Choose Off, Low, Medium, High. Effect levels and flow targets represent illustrative modeled responses; they are not clinical dose instructions.

Na⁺/K⁺-ATPase inhibition increases intracellular calcium; vagal effects slow AV-nodal conduction. Renally cleared with a narrow therapeutic index.

The paused reference covers the route (Slow IV injection; oral maintenance also available.), example doses/settings, indications, adverse effects, contraindications/precautions and monitoring. These details are available after the intervention is selected.

What to monitor in the reference: Renal function, potassium/magnesium, ECG and appropriately timed drug level.

Step by step

  1. Inspect the untreated disease and active treatment count.
  2. Apply the intervention and compare pressures, forward flow, rhythm and congestion.
  3. Pause for its full reference; use Off or Interventions Reset to restart the comparison.
