Pantoprazole, sold under the brand name Protonix, among others, is a medication used for the treatment of stomach ulcers, short-term treatment of erosive esophagitis due to gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), maintenance of healing of erosive esophagitis, and pathological hypersecretory conditions including Zollinger–Ellison syndrome.
These channels can be activated (opened) by either electrical means, or by increasing Ca 2+ concentrations in the cell. [2] [3] BK channels help regulate physiological processes, such as circadian behavioral rhythms and neuronal excitability. [4] BK channels are also involved in many processes in the body, as it is a ubiquitous channel.
Class IV agents affect calcium channels and the AV node. Class V agents work by other or unknown mechanisms. With regard to management of atrial fibrillation, classes I and III are used in rhythm control as medical cardioversion agents, while classes II and IV are used as rate-control agents.
In a hospital setting, an intravenous PCA (IV PCA) refers to an electronically controlled infusion pump that delivers an amount of analgesic when the patient presses a button. [4] IV PCA can be used for both acute and chronic pain patients. It is commonly used for post-operative pain management, and for end-stage cancer patients. [5]
HCN channels are sometimes referred to as pacemaker channels because they help to generate rhythmic activity within groups of heart and brain cells. HCN channels are activated by membrane hyperpolarization, are permeable to Na + and K + , and are constitutively open at voltages near the resting membrane potential. [ 2 ]
Dofetilide blocks only the rapid K channels; this means that at higher heart rates, when there is increased involvement of the slow K channels, dofetilide has less of an action potential-prolonging effect. Sotalol is indicated for the treatment of atrial or ventricular tachyarrhythmias, and AV re-entrant arrhythmias.
Calcium has been shown to block sodium channels [2] which explains the effects of hypercalcemia and hypocalcemia. Lamotrigine is known to block sodium channels but it is not known whether it is extracellular or intracellular. Cannabidiol (CBD) has been shown to cause inhibitory effects on sodium currents. This voltage-dependent inhibition is ...
