描述 | Levosimendan is a calcium sensitiser and potassium channel-opener used in the management of acutely decompensated congestive heart failure. The principal pharmacological effects of levosimendan are (a) increased cardiac contractility by calcium sensitisation of troponin C, (b) vasodilation, and (c) cardioprotection. Levosimendan also has favourable effects on neurohormone levels in heart failure patients. Levosimendan is generally well tolerated in acute heart failure patients: the most common adverse events encountered in this setting are hypotension, headache, atrial fibrillation, hypokalaemia and tachycardia[3]. Levosimendan increases contractile force of the heart and improves vasodilation. It increases the heart's sensitivity to calcium, thereby increasing cardiac contractility. Its mechanism of action is via the increased calcium sensitivity of myocytes by binding to cardiac troponin C in a calcium-dependent manner. Its opening of adenosine triphosphate-sensitive potassium channels in vascular smooth muscle leads to a vasodilatory effect and smooth muscle relaxatio[4]. Levosimendan possesses an isoform-selective phosphodiesterase-inhibitory effect[5]. Levosimendan might reduce mortality in cardiac surgery and cardiology settings of adult patients[6]. |
