Phenylephrine and methoxamine are direct-acting, predominantly α(1) adrenergic receptor (AR) agonists. To better understand their physiologic effects, we screened 463 articles on the basis of PubMed searches of "methoxamine" and "phenylephrine" (limited to human, randomized studies published in English), as

Anesthesia sometimes suppresses ventricular tachyarrhythmias (VT) resistant to conventional pharmacological treatment. To know (1) whether deep anesthesia inhibits abnormal repolarization-related VT and (2) if α2-adrenoreceptor (AR) agonistic action is associated with the antiarrhythmic effect of anesthetics, the incidence of VT
