Abstract Objective To evaluate the effect of levosimendan on the treatment of advanced patients with severe heart failure. Methods Using a retrospective study method, 60 patients with advanced severe heart failure in ICU of Chifeng Municipal Hospital from September 2015 to October 2017 were randomly divided into the control group (group C, n=30) and the test group (group T, n=30). On the basis of basic treatment, the two groups were treated with barphenbutylamine 4 μg/(kg·min) continuous pumping for 24 h (group C) and levsimendan 0.1 μg/kg·min continuous pumping for 24 h (group T) respectively. At three points of before treatment (T0), 24 h after treatment (T1), 72 h after treatment (T2), the biochemical indexes of cardiac function of NT-proBNP, CK-MB and GAP, hemodynamic index of CVP and HR, the related indexes of left ventricular function of LVESV, LVEDV, LVESD, LVEDD, LVEF and LVSF, the related indexes of right ventricular function of RVEF, RVLD, RVDD and PASP, liver function indexes of SCr, ALT and AST, were recorded. Results There was no significant difference in gender, APACHEⅡ score, age, BMI and NYHA grade between the two groups (P>0.05). Compared with T0 time and C group, NT-proBNP, CK-MB, GAP, CVP and HR decreased significantly (P<0.05); LVEF and LVSF increased and LVESV, EPSS, LVESD decreased significantly (P<0.05); RVEF increased and RVLD, RVDD, PASP decreased significantly (P<0.05); SCr, ALT and AST decreased significantly (P<0.05) in group T at T1 and T2. Conclusion The cardiac function of patients with advanced severe heart failure can be significantly improved by routine therapy adding levosimendan for 24 hours, and the therapeutic effect is significant.
