Hidden effects of dobutamine on cardiac output [PDF]
Background Dobutamine exerts its pharmacological effects by stimulating α1-, β1-, and β2-adrenergic receptors. Activation of these receptors increase both the force of cardiac contraction (inotropy) and heart rate (chronotropy).

Case Report: When inotropy backfires—dobutamine-associated eosinophilic myocarditis [PDF]
Eosinophilic myocarditis (EM) is a rare form of myocarditis that is often triggered by drug hypersensitivity reactions. We describe the case of a 55-year-old man who presented with cardiogenic shock that rapidly progressed despite dual inotropic therapy,

The effect of dobutamine in sepsis: a propensity score matched analysis
Background The use of dobutamine in patients with sepsis is questionable currently. As the benefit of dobutamine in septic patients is unclear, we aimed to evaluate whether the use of dobutamine was associated with decreased hospital mortality in sepsis ...

Pharmacological vs Exercise Stress Echocardiography for Detection of Cardiac Allograft Vasculopathy
Objective: To test the hypothesis that exercise and dobutamine would provide levels of cardiac stress that are comparable to those achieved in a general stress test population, and to one another, in heart transplant recipients.

Protective Effects of Fuziline on Dobutamine-Induced Heart Damage in Mice
Introduction: Fuziline is one of the many antioxidants currently being tested to treat cardiac damage. In our study, histopathological and biochemical effects of fuziline were investigated in mice with dobutamine-induced heart damage in vitro.

Myocardial work index during normal dobutamine stress echocardiography
Dobutamine stress echocardiography is an alternative method to exercise stress echocardiography for the evaluation of ischemia. Recently, the novel speckle tracking imaging derived parameter, myocardial work index, was suggested for the evaluation of ...

Predictive significance of residual ischemia proved by dobutamine stress: Echocardiography test in patients early after the first uncomplicated myocardial infarction [PDF]
Background. To evaluate the long-term prognostic value of dobutamine stress-echocardiography (ECG) test for new coronary events (new episodes of angina pectoris, cardiac-related deaths, and reinfarctions) early after the first uncomplicated myocardial ...
