Summary

The existence of endogenously produced, digoxin-like factor(s) is clear. The implications of die presence of this circulating substance are substantial for the practice of emergency medical care. Clearly, EDLF plays an important role in the generation of dysrhythmias associated with an AMI. Treatment with AA could become routine early in the course of management of some patients with AMI and in die treatment of some forms of hypertension
