Low-Dose β-Blocker in Combination With Milrinone Safely Improves Cardiac Function and Eliminates Pulsus Alternans in Patients With Acute Decompensated Heart Failure

Abstract

A low-dose β-blocker in combination with milrinone improved cardiac function in ADHF patients with tachycardia; therefore, it may be considered as an adjunct therapy for use when standard therapy with milrinone is not effective at slowing HR.
