Drugs, 2001
Levosimendan, a pyridazinone-dinitrile derivative, is a calcium sensitiser with additional action on adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-sensitive potassium channels. It is used intravenously (IV) for the treatment of decompensated cardiac failure. At therapeutic doses, levosimendan exhibits enhanced contractility with no increase in oxygen demands.

During the last years an increasing number of patients with high perioperative risk and decreased left ventricular function are referred to cardiac and non-cardiac surgery. In this subgroup of patients, heart failure is the major cause of perioperative morbidity and mortality. In order to prevent and treat this type of complications several therapeutic

Clinical Pharmacology of Levosimendan
Clinical Pharmacokinetics, 2007Levosimendan has been developed for the treatment of decompensated heart failure and is used intravenously when patients with heart failure require immediate initiation of drug therapy. It increases cardiac contractility and induces vasodilatation.

Levosimendan: Implications for Clinicians
The Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 2003Levosimendan is a novel calcium sensitizing agent in development for the treatment of acute and chronic heart failure. The agent increases myocardial force without increasing myocyte calcium concentrations, thus reducing the possibility for myocardial necrosis.
