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 ...

Inotropic Action of Hexamethonium [PDF]
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.

I have read with interest a recent meta-analysis by Nizamic et al. [(1)][1] of inotropes in heart failure. The authors concluded that inotropes improve functional status but do not impact survival.

Vasopressor stays vasopressor and inotrope stays inotrope! [PDF]
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 ...
