In the ED, adenosine is used to terminate supraventricular tachycardias (SVTs). It is also used by cardiologists for pharmacologic stress testing. Paroxysmal SVT has a prevalence of around 2.25 per ...

Adenosine is a short-acting endogenous molecule that is a purine nucleoside. The half-life is 6 seconds. Adenosine receptor activation results in multiple different actions depending on the location.

Adenosine 3mg/mL; soln for IV inj; preservative-free. Adenosine slows conduction time through the A-V node, can interrupt the reentry pathways through the A-V node, and can restore normal sinus rhythm ...

Adenosine sensitive ventricular tachycardia occurs in structurally normal hearts and arises from the right ventricular outflow tract (pulmonary infundibulum). This gives it a left bundle branch block ...

The coffee paradox in adenosine-mediated antidepressant action. Depression (left) and coffee consumption (right) are both linked through adenosine signaling (center), creating a pharmacological ...
