Inotropes Made Simple – PaediatricFOAM

Fundamentally, inotropes are properly dangerous drugs, and should only be used if you and the rest of the team know what they are doing, and the patient is properly monitored. The key to proper use of inotropes is to first understand what each drug does, then to …

Inotrope
Inotropes have been shown to be associated with a worse outcome, but milrinone, which is both an inotrope and a vasodilator, may be associated with some improvement in outcome. Enterovirus 71 may be spreadable via respiration

Circulation: Heart Failure – inotropes

The mean dose of inotropes within the multiple-inotrope subgroup was lower in the post-sharing era compared to the pre-sharing era (dobutamine dose decreased 49%, dopamine dose decreased 55%, and milrinone dose decreased 29%, p<0.001). Interestingly 2

Inotropes in Acute Heart Failure: From Guidelines to …

Acute heart failure (AHF) is defined as the sudden presentation or sudden aggravation of signs and symptoms of heart failure, often requiring hospitalisation. 1 It is a life-threatening condition, with in-hospital mortality ranging from 22% to 37% in severe cases of cardiogenic shock. 2–4 Inotropes have been used in the management of patients with AHF for decades, especially for patients

Vasopressors and Inotropes
Inotropes are drugs that increase myocardial contractility (inotropy) — e.g. Epinephrine, Dobutamine, Isoproterenol, Ephedrine Vasopressors cause vasoconstriction resulting increased systemic and/or pulmonary vascular resistance (SVR, PVR) — e.g. Norepinephrine, vasopressin, vasopressin.

Inotropes and Vasodilators
Inotropes are drugs that basically alter the contractility of the cardiac or heart muscle. There are positive and negative inotropes. The positive inotropes act by enhancing cardiac contractility thus increasing the cardiac output. Negative inotropes, on the other.

Cardiac inotropes: current agents and future directions
Current inotropes Current inotropic drugs include cardiac glycosides, β-adrenoceptor agonists, phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors, and calcium sensitizers ( Figure 4 , Table 1 ). 1 , 2 Cardiac glycosides inhibit the sodium-potassium-ATPase (Na + /K + -ATPase) resulting in sodium accumulation which in turn promotes cellular calcium accumulation by influencing driving forces of the NCX.

 · Inotropes are a class of drugs that change the force of the heart’s contraction. The physiological basis for their actions, apart from its direct effect on cardiac myocyte excitation and contraction, is characterized by changes in the homeostasis of the microvascular

Effects of Inotropes on the Mortality in Patients With …

A total of 417 patients with septic shock were included, 72 (17.3%) of whom received inotropes. The use of epinephrine and dobutamine was associated with significantly higher in-hospital mortality (epinephrine, hazard ratio [HR]: 4.79, 95% confidence intervalP P

Pharmacotherapy Update on the Use of Vasopressors …

 · Inotropes include inodilators (dobutamine and milrinone) and the aforementioned inoconstrictors. These medications act as inotropes by enhancing cardiac output through enhanced contractility. The inodilators also reduce afterload from systemic vasodilation.
