digitalized Explanation: Intensive care of the patient with acute myocardial infarction M. W. McNicol Central Middlesex Hospital, London, N. W.1 [...] All arrhythmias must be treated wherever possible, in particular any marked tachycardia or bradycardia. Arrhythmia can cause shock and often perpetuates it, and the effect of correction is often dramatic. If shock persists after these measures, the patient should be digitalized. http://pmj.bmj.com/content/43/498/207.full.pdf Patients with atrial flutter or fibrillation should be cardioverted or digitalized prior to PA administration to avoid enhancement of A-V conduction which may result in ventricular rate acceleration beyond tolerable limits https://www.drugs.com/pro/procainamide.html |

Digitization: the process of converting information into a digital format that can be processed by computers and many devices with computing capacity. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4583658/ |
