What is the c/u for Phenytoin?
What is the MOA of Phenytoin?
MOA 1:*a) Digoxin binds the K+ on the Na+/K+ pump

preventing Na+/K+ exchange; K+ therefore stays outside the
cell while Na+ stays inside the cell;*b) Na+ is then no longer
exchanged with Ca2+; Ca2+ accumulates inside the cell;*c) Once
threshhold is finally reached and an action potential does occur,
the accumulated Ca2+ is released; release of an increased amount
of Ca2+ results in an increased ionotropic effect (i.e. increased
contractility due to increased ions, Ca2+ in this case)*MOA
2:*Stimulates CN X in the Medulla
Digoxin has 2 diff't c/u's b/c it has 2 diff't MOA's:*1)
CHF*MOA = Inhibition Na+/K+ ATPase --> incr'd
intracellular Ca2+ -->*incr'd contractility*2) Atrial

decr'd AV node stimulation --> *decr'd HR**NOTE: *I used
Dr. Francis's explanation (Physio notes p. 60) b/c Shahzad's
explanation is clearly wrong!*1) He said that ventricular
contraction is due to Na+ h/w ALL muscle contractions is due
to Ca2+ while ventricular DEPOLARIZATION (not
contraction) is due to Na+.*2) He also said that the reason
slowed conduction through the AV-node is helpful for A-fib is
that it gives time for Na+ accumulation that leads to incr'd
ventricular contractility h/w changing ventricular contractility will
have no affect on the atrium or A-Fib.
