| pubmed-article:15470335 | pubmed:abstractText | Although oxytocin, a uterotonic agent, may cause short-term vasodilation that results in severe hypotension, it is still routinely given as an intravenous bolus injection during surgical suction curettage. Two reported cases of ventricular tachycardia after oxytocin bolus in patients with long QT interval syndrome led us to assess the effect of oxytocin on QT interval. | lld:pubmed |
