Abstract: Levosimendan is a positive inotropic drug agent that increases the sensibility of contractile proteins to calcium [ 1 ]. The drug is used in patients with decompensated low-output heart failure [ 2 ]. The aim of our study is to analyze the hemodynamic effects of levosimendan in patients with refractory cardiogenic shock.
