Does dobutamine infusion improve severe neurogenic pulmonary edema in a patient with subarachnoid hemorrhage?
Dobutamine infusion may be an effective treatment for neurogenic pulmonary edema following subarachnoid hemorrhage by reducing peripheral vascular resistance and increasing cardiac contractility.
Knudsen et al. (1991) studied this question.
