Congestive heart failure with sinus rhythm. Audit of digoxin therapy in a family medicine teaching unit.

J Hendry1.   

Abstract

The literature was reviewed for evidence of digoxin efficacy and for indicators of positive digoxin response in chronic congestive heart failure with normal sinus rhythm. Practice in a family medicine teaching unit was audited based on this review. Most patients in this study were treated appropriately. Several (22% to 36%), however, were treated incorrectly with digoxin.
