Peri-operative Inotrope Use in Off Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgeries [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2017
Introduction: Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (OPCABG) surgery is now widely accepted and practiced. The literature on inotrope use in OPCABG is sparse. Aim: To look into the intra-operative and immediate postoperative (up to 12 hours after skin

Vasopressor stays vasopressor and inotrope stays inotrope! [PDF]

Critical Care, 2008
We should like to comment on the interesting work reported by Muller and colleagues [1]. We feel that the results of their experiment were predictable and that arginine vasopressin (AVP) was not indicated in that setting. Infusing a vasoconstrictor without relevant inotropic potential in an acute low flow state with maintained or increased vascular ...

Inotropic Action of Hexamethonium [PDF]

Circulation Research, 1958
The positive inotropic action of hexamethonium in hypodynamic and freshly prepared papillary muscles of the eat and the hypodynamic heart-lung preparation of the dog has been demonstrated. Within certain limits, there exists a proportionality between the concentration of hexamethonium and the magnitude of the inotropic response.

Implications of Myocardial Infarction on Management and Outcome in Cardiogenic Shock

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2021
Background The randomized DOREMI (Dobutamine Compared to Milrinone) clinical trial evaluated the efficacy and safety of milrinone and dobutamine in patients with cardiogenic shock. Whether the results remain consistent when stratified by acute myocardial

The effects of levosimendan in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement- a retrospective analysis

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Background: Aortic stenosis (AS) increases left ventricular afterload, leading to cardiac damage and heart failure (HF). Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is an effective therapy for AS.

Inotropes

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2014
Inotropes have been fundamental to resuscitation of acute cardiogenic shock for decades. Heart failure and cardiogenic shock, in severe cases, are syndromes characterized in many patients by a reduction in myocardial contractile force. While inotropes successfully increase cardiac output, their use has been plagued by excessive mortality due to ...
