The formation rate constant and elimination rate constant for 3-hydroxyquinidine were determined in eight patients with ventricular tachycardia. These two parameters (mean +/- SD) were found to be 0.784 +/- 0.202 and 0.042 +/- 0.058 h-1, respectively. Coefficients of determination for the computer-generated line of best fit for serum concentration-time data were 0.986 +/- 0.008. Patients received two infusions of quinidine gluconate 5 mg/kg over 30 minutes separated by a 20-30 minute electrophysiologic testing period. Unbound and total 3-hydroxyquinidine concentrations were also determined. Among the eight patients, 3-hydroxyquinidine was 61.9 percent bound. Studies in healthy volunteers had shown 50 percent binding. Linear regression of unbound and total 3-hydroxyquinidine was described by the equation Y = 0.3814X-1.448, r = 0.813. Although half-lives of 3.5-12.4 hours had been reported in healthy volunteers, prolonged half-lives were observed in all but two of our arrhythmia patients.
