Chest pain

Which of the following NYHA classes of heart failure patients should not receive epinephrine or other pressor amines during dental treatment?

Class III and IV The ACC/AHA guidelines indicate that decompensated HF constitutes a major risk for the occurrence of a serious event (acute MI, unstable angina, or sudden death) during treatment. Patients with symptoms of uncompensated HF - NYHA classes II, III, IV are generally not candidates for elective dental care until medical consult is obtained. Even afterwords, classes III and IV should usually be treated in a hospital dental clinic or other setting where continuous cardiac monitoring and advanced cardiac care is available. Such patients would not usually be good candidates for the use of vasoconstrictors due to the possibility of cardiac stress. See pages 89-90 in Ch. 6 for more explanation.

Other proinflammatory cytokines, natural killer cell activity, and antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity also may play modulating roles in cell injury and inflammation during acute viral hepatitis infection.
