May aid hemodynamic-based AMI therapy selection; leaves open prospective outcome validation.
Physiologic Basis for Therapeutic Decisions — Effects of Drugs on Cardiac FunctionThe selection of therapy for a patient with disordered function in acute myocardial infarction involves both assessment of the level of cardiac performance and prediction of the response to therapy. Table 5 summarizes the reported hemodynamic effects of commonly used therapeutic methods in acute myocardial infarction. The effects of therapeutic agents on cardiac function in acute myocardial infarction are usefully considered in four classes: diuretics, vasodilators, inotropes and others. This classification is of particular value in clinical practice, for although there are substantial variations in the magnitude of effects, the . . .
