Dose-dependent shortening of systolic time intervals after intake of pengitoxin.

The systolic time intervals (STI) corrected for changes in the heart rate, electromechanical systole (QS2c) and left ventricular ejection time (LVETc), and the ECG-derived PQ-time and QT-interval were measured in five female and four male healthy subjects. Each volunteer took 0.15, 0.30, 0.45, 0.60, 0.75 or 0.90 mg pengitoxin over six days, with a glycoside-free interval of two or three weeks between two doses. The glycoside plasma level was measured radioimmunologically. Linear correlations were found between the shortening of QS2, LVET, and QT (delta QS2c, delta LVETc, delta QTc) and the plasma level of 16-acetyl-gitoxin. The PQ-time showed a flat dose-dependent increase. The shortening of STI observed after therapeutic and subtoxic doses of pengitoxin was in accordance with that after intake of digitoxin and digoxin in corresponding doses. The efficacy of pengitoxin estimated by shortening of STI justifies the administration of daily maintenance doses between 0.30 and 0.45 mg.
