Because of the proarrhythmic effect, the safety of the use of class 1c antiarrhythmic agent has been a matter of debate. The aim of this study is to develop a simple test to predict the serum level of pilsicainide (Pil) known as a new class 1c agent using both resting and exercise ECGs. The inter-relationship between the serum level of Pil and ECG measurement variables was evaluated in 12 patients with symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. 33 samples of blood were taken at different periods before and after the treatment'of Pil. ECG measurememnt variables were the at-rest width of P wave (P), QRS wave (QRS), PQ interval, QTc, and the width of QRS wave at the maximum HR during exercise (max. QRS). The ECG was recorded at the paper speed of 50mm/sec and the measurements were made by a scaled magnifying scope. Control data (C) was gathered before treatment. P, QRS, PQ, QTc, and max. QRS increased significantly after treatment with Pil, but HR at rest and max. HR during exercise did not. SC was 0.43±0.16μg/ml. The correlation between SC vs P, QRS, max. QRS was statiscally significant, while that between PQ and QTc was not. The coefficient value between SC and the increment of P (ΔP: Ppil-Pc) and QRS (ΔQRS: QRSpi1-QRSc) was high (ΔP: r =0.66, ΔQRS: r=0.53). It is concluded that the serum level of Pil is predictable by ΔP and ΔQRS due to its slow kinetic characteristics. This provides a simple method for the safe use of class 1c antiarrhythmic agent.
