Dose-ranging and safety with intravenous levosimendan in low-output heart failure: experience in three pilot studies and outline of the levosimendan infusion versus dobutamine (LIDO) trial

A series of dose-ranging and tolerability studies of intravenous levosimendan (bolus then infusion) were conducted in 40 patients with low-output heart failure (cardiac index
