Abstract We report the use of Levosimendan, calcium sensitizer, inodilator in a neonate with post-operative refractory cardiogenic shock. Currently, no data are available on the use of levosimendan in newborns outside the cardiosurgical setting. A 38-week neonate -with isolated exomphalos major-presented post-operatively with pulmonary hypertension, refractory cardiogenic shock (inspite of receiving, a bolus of 10ml/kg, Dopamine and Dobutamine 15µg/kg/min, Adrenaline up to 1mg/Kg/min, Noradrenaline 0.5mg/Kg/min, Terlipressin 20µg/Kg/hour, Milrinone 25µg/Kg/min) and arrhythmia (supraventricular tachycardia). Levosimendan was introduced as an intravenous infusion with an initial rate of 0.1 up to 0.2µg/Kg/min in addition to Noradrenaline 1µg/Kg/min, Dopamine 15µg/Kg/min and Furosemide infusion 0.1mg/Kg/hour. The patient improved evidenced by normalization of vital signs and restoration of perfusion with better cardiac functions by echocardiography. Conclusion: Levosimendan has positive inotropic, lusitropic and vasodilating effects for the treatment of heart failure yet further studies in neonates are still required.

AbstractSupraventricular tachycardia is the most common significant arrhythmia in children. If prolonged, it may cause heart failure and progress to cardiogenic shock warranting prompt treatment. The recommended interventions following vagal manoeuvres are intravenous adenosine and in the unstable patient electrical cardioversion. We present an infant with an unstable supraventricular tachycardia that was resistant to electrical cardioversion and recommended doses of adenosine. He reverted to sinus rhythm with a higher dose of adenosine, suggesting that such doses may be required in refractory supraventricular tachycardia.

Average Contribution

The high-frequency (HF) component of the heart rate variability (HRV) is regarded as an index of cardiac vagal responsiveness. However, when vagal tone is decreased, nonneural mechanisms could account for a significant proportion of the HF component. To test this hypothesis, we examined the HRV spectral power in 20 patients with mild chronic heart failure (CHF) and 11 controls before and during ganglion blockade with trimethaphan camsylate (3–6 mg/min iv). A small HF component was still present during ganglion blockade, and its amplitude did not differ between CHF patients and controls. The average contribution of nonneural oscillations to the HF component was 15% (range 1–77%) in patients with CHF and 3% (range 0.7–30%) in healthy controls ( P < 0.005). During controlled breathing at 0.16 Hz, however, it decreased to 1% (range 0.2–13%) in healthy controls and 5% (range 1–44%) in CHF patients. Our results indicate that the HF component can significantly overestimate cardiac vagal responsiveness in patients with mild CHF. This bias is improved by controlled breathing, since this maneuver increases the vagal contribution to HF without affecting its nonneural component.
