Abstract:
objective:To understand the relationship between digoxin toxicity and serum digoxin concentration.Methods:The criterion for diagnosis of digoxin toxicity was established.The serum digoxin concentration was measuredby fluorescence polarization immunoassay.Results:31 of 213 patients receiving digoxin were intoxicated.The incidence of toxicity was 14.5%.Conclusion:The occurence of digoxin toxicity is close related to serum digoxin levels,and the risk of digoxin toxicity is increased with the increase of serum digoxin concentration.
