Acute hemodynamic effect of oral MDL 17,043 in severe congestive heart failure

MDL 17,043, when administered intravenously in humans, produces a significant and salutary hemodynamic response. To determine its acute effect when administered rally (3 mg/kg), 10 patients with severe congestive heart failure were studied by right-sided cardiac catheterization for 8 hours. At 4 hou...

Zusammenfassung:MDL 17,043, when administered intravenously in humans, produces a significant and salutary hemodynamic response. To determine its acute effect when administered rally (3 mg/kg), 10 patients with severe congestive heart failure were studied by right-sided cardiac catheterization for 8 hours. At 4 hours after drug ingestion, there was significant improvement in several hemodynamic measurements. Cardiac index increased 38% over baseline (from 1.9 ± 0.4 to 2.6 ± 0.4 liters/ min/ m 2, p
