Comparison of the effects of pentobarbital and chloralose on the cardiac rhythms of the dog in chronic atrio-ventricular heart block.

In the dog in chronic atrio-ventricular dissociation, pentobarbital at a dose of 25 mg/kg causes atrial tachycardia, but does not change the ventricular frequency. The vagolytic effect of pentobarbital explains this phenomenon. The pronounced vagal tonus seen in the Keith-Flack node, is not seen in the ventricle. Chloralose at a dose of 80 mg/kg i.v. does not alter atrial frequency but depresses ventricular frequency, in a significant way, for 40 min.
