Levosimendan for the prevention of acute organ dysfunction in sepsis [PDF]
, 2016 BACKGROUND Levosimendan is a calcium-sensitizing drug with inotropic and other properties that may improve outcomes in patients with sepsis. METHODS We conducted a double-blind, randomized clinical trial to investigate whether levosimendan reduces the ...
