Objectives
 Review the pathophysiology of ADHF.
 Describe the clinical presentation of ADHF.
 Apply effective therapeutic strategies using consensus
guidelines from the (HFSA) and the (ESC).
 Examine the clinical evidence of milrinone and
niseritide in the treatment of ADHF.
 Evaluate the appropriateness of treatment.
ADHF
 Rapid onset of signs and symptoms secondary to abnormal cardiac
function due to systolic, diastolic dysfunction, abnormalities in
cardiac rhythm or to pre-load and after-load mismatch.
 De novo or acute decompensation of CHF.
 ~50% of patients have a systolic blood pressure >140mmHg.
 ~46% of patients have a preserved (LVEF).
 Patients often present with multiple co-morbidities.
 Killip Classification.
 Forrester Classification.
 Clinical Severity Classification.
Pathophysiology
 LV dysfunction:
Accumulation of fluid.
Decrease in CO
Hypoperfusion.
 Reciprocal Activation of (RAAS)
Na, water retention.
AGII
ET1 + Vasopressin.
Reflex activation of SNS: Epi, NE.
Killip Classification
 Stage I: No clinical signs of decompensation.
 Stage II: Heart failure. Rales, S3, PVH.
 Stage III: Severe heart failure. Pulmonary edema with
rales throughout the lung fields.
 Stage IV: Cardiogenic Shock: Hypotension, peripheral
vasoconstriction, oliguria, cyanosis and diaphoresis.

Outcomes of a Prospective Trial of
Intravenous Milrinone for Exacerbations of
Chronic Heart Failure
JAMA, March 27 2002: 287(12);1541-1547
Objective: To prospectively test whether a strategy that includes short–term
use of milrinone in addition to standard therapy can improve clinical outcomes
of patients hospitalized with an exacerbation of chronic heart failure.
Study Design
 Prospective randomized double-blind placebocontrolled trial.
 ITTA.
 Similar baseline characteristics.
 Randomization to a 48 hour infusion of either
milrinone (n = 477) or placebo ( 472).
 Milrinone treatment arm: Started with an initial
infusion of 0.5ug/kg/min for 48hrs. (Rate adjusted to
0.375 ug/kg/min)
Outcome Measures
 Primary Efficacy Outcome:
 The total number of days hospitalized for cardiovascular causes or
days decreased within the 60 days after randomization.
 Secondary endpoints:





Failed therapy because of adverse events.
Failed therapy because of worsening heart failure.
Proportion of patients achieving target doses of ACE-I therapy.
Time to achieve target ACE-I dose.
Symptom improvement in HF score.

Intravenous Nesiritide vs Nitroglycerin
for Treatment of Decompensated
Congestive Heart Failure
Objective: To compare the efficacy and safety of
intravenous nesiritide, intravenous nitroglycerin
and placebo.
Study Design
 Randomized double-blind, double dummy trial.
 Patients were stratified to catheterized (n=246) and
non-catheterized (n= 243)
 Patients were then randomized to fixed dose nesiritide,
adjustable dose niseritide, nitroglycerin or placbo for
the first 3 hours.
 After 3 hours patients were in the double dummy
design of nesiritide and nitroglycerin treatment arms.
Outcome Measures
 Primary Endpoint: Change in PCWP and patient’s
self-evaluation of dyspnea from baseline at 3hours.
 Secondary Endpoints:




Onset of effect on PCWP
Effect on PCWP 24 hrs after the start of study drug
Self-assessed dyspnea and global clinical status
Overall safety profile.
Inclusion
Inclusion Criteria
Dyspnea at rest
Cardiac etiology of dyspnea
Exclusion Criteria
SBP<90
Volume depletion
CI to IV vasodilators
Mechanical ventillation
Survival less than 35 days
Results
 Reduction in PCWP was greater in the
nesiritide group with the first measurement.
 Beyond 24hr the difference in PCWP between
nesiritide and nitroglycerin was insignificant.
 Improvement in dyspnea and global clinical
status scores in the nesiritide and nitroglycerin
were not significantly different at any time.
 HA was more common in the Nitroglycerin
group.
Limitations
 Heterogenous patient population*
 Therapeutic protocol.
 Assessment of mortality/morbidity
Conclusion
 When added to standard care in hospitalized
patients with ADHF, nesiritied improves
hemodynamic function and some selfreported symptoms more effectively than
intravenous nitroglycerin.
