Rescue of a patient with fulminant myocarditis by percutaneous extracorporeal bypass.

A previously well 53-year-old man with fulminant myocarditis is presented. Cardiogenic shock and medically refractory low cardiac output syndrome were unsuccessfully treated using an intraaortic balloon pump. A percutaneous extracorporeal bypass system improved hemodynamics, DIC and other multiorgan injuries following acute myocarditis.

Dopamine-beta-hydroxylase activity after acute myocardial infarction.

The observed increase in DBH activity on the first, second, and third days after acute myocardial infarction suggests an augmentation in sympathetic nervous system activity after acute myocardial infarction.
