Abstract:
:Acute and chronic hemodynamic and clinical responses to milrinone, a new oral inotrope-vasodilator agent, were evaluated prospectively in 37 patients with severe congestive heart failure. The majority of patients (n = 31) had not responded to prior vasodilator therapy, with a substantial number (n = 8) requiring intravenous inotropic support at the time of initial study. All patients showed acute hemodynamic improvement with oral milrinone, and an optimal maintenance dose was chosen for each patient during dose-ranging studies (average dose 48 mg/day). Milrinone was discontinued before follow-up hemodynamic study in 12 patients (because of worsening congestive heart failure in 6 patients, sudden death in 3 patients, arrhythmia in 1 patient and refusal by 2 patients). Hemodynamic effects of milrinone both acutely and after chronic therapy (average 37 days) were compared in the remaining 25 patients. Acutely, mean cardiac index increased from 1.9 +/- 0.5 to 2.5 +/- 0.5 liters/min per m2 (p less than 0.001), and mean pulmonary capillary wedge pressure decreased from 28 +/- 9 to 18 +/- 8 mm Hg (p less than 0.001). When oral milrinone was readministered after chronic therapy, mean cardiac index increased from 1.9 +/- 0.5 to 2.5 +/- 1.7 liters/min per m2 (p less than 0.001), and pulmonary capillary wedge pressure decreased from 27 +/- 8 to 20 +/- 8 mm Hg (p less than 0.001) at 1 hour. New York Heart Association functional class improved in 18 of the 25 patients treated over a long-term period (mean 5.5 +/- 2.3 months).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
