Key result
Administration of frusemide in patients with suspected acute myocardial infarction produced an average diuresis of 710 ml during the 60 minutes after injection.
Why the study?
What are the haemodynamic effects of 40 mg intravenous or intramuscular furosemide in patients with suspected acute myocardial infarction?
What are the haemodynamic effects of 40 mg intravenous or intramuscular furosemide in patients with suspected acute myocardial infarction?
Administration of 40 mg furosemide in patients with suspected acute myocardial infarction and left ventricular dysfunction results in significant diuresis within 60 minutes.

May support early diuresis in suspected AMI with LV dysfunction; leaves open haemodynamic effects and requires randomized confirmation.
The haemodynamic effects of intravenous and intramuscular injections of 40 mg frusemide were studied in I7 patients with suspected acute myocardial infarction. Sixteen of the patients had either clinical or radiographic evidence of left ventricular dysfunction. There was an average diuresis of 7I0 ml during the 6o minutes after the injection. Haemodynamic data were obtained before and at I5, 30, and 6o minutes after the injection.

Mond et al. (1974) studied Suspected acute myocardial infarction (n=17). Frusemide was evaluated on Average diuresis and haemodynamic effects. Administration of frusemide in patients with suspected acute myocardial infarction produced an average diuresis of 710 ml during the 60 minutes after injection.
