Vasodilator therapy for decompensated heart failure.
odium nitroprusside is appropriate for the acute treatment f congestive heart failure. The starting dose is 0.3 to 0.5 g/kg/min titrated to goal attainment of desired hemodyamics but usually not beyond 5 g/kg/min. Doses of 10 g/kg/min or sustained administration will result in excesive cyanide production, which may occasionally lead to yanide poisoning and may rarely lead to the development f m...
متن کاملLong-term vasodilator therapy for heart failure: clinical response and its relationship to hemodynamic measurements.
To assess the clinical efficacy of chronic vasodilator therapy for refractory congestive heart failure, the long-term follow-up (mean 13 months, range 3-30 months) was evaluated in 56 patients treated with hydralazine, usually in combination with nitrates. In the first 6 months, 73% improved subjectively and 59% improved by one or two New York Heart Association classifications; early improvemen...
متن کاملVASODILATOR EFFECTS OF THE β -AGONIST ISOPRENALINE IN AN EXPERIMENTAL MODEL OF HEART FAILURE
Heart failure is a clinical syndrome characterized by the inability of the heart to provide nutrient supply to tissues. In 75% of cases, the underlying pathology causing heart failure in patients with cardiac death is coronary heart disease. A rabbit model of heart failure with coronary ligation was produced to mimic coronary heart disease in humans. After producing the model, two arteries ...

The purpose of the work presented here was to investigate endotheliumdependent relaxations in the rabbit coronary ligation model of heart failure. We investigated endothelium-dependent relaxations at the level of larger vessels (thoracic aorta and vena cava left renal artery and left renal vein lateral saphenous artery and lateral saphenous vein and finally central ear artery and marginal e...
