Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Peak change from baseline of PCWP (pulmonary capillary wedge pressure)

    Measurements will be made using a Swan-Ganz indwelling catheter

    baseline, after 8 and 20 hrs treatment

  • Peak change from baseline of CI (cardiac index)

    Measurements will be made using a Swan-Ganz indwelling catheter

    baseline, after 8 and 20 hrs treatment

Secondary Outcomes (16)

  • Change over time of PCWP (pulmonary capillary wedge pressure)

    During 20 hours of infusion and up to 4 hours after stop of infusion

  • Change over time of systemic vascular resistance (SVR)

    During 20 hours of infusion and up to 4 hours after stop of infusion

  • Change over time of pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR)

    During 20 hours of infusion and up to 4 hours after stop of infusion

  • Change over time of pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP)

    During 20 hours of infusion and up to 4 hours after stop of infusion

  • Change over time of pulmonary and peripheral oxygen saturation

    During 20 hours of infusion and up to 4 hours after stop of infusion

  • +11 more secondary outcomes
