Abstract

In a previous study, intravenous bolus of high-dose NTG (2 mg) with repeated administration every 3 minutes, up to a total of 10 doses in treatment of severe decompensated heart failure, was associated with lower frequency of endotracheal intubation and intensive care unit admissions as well as few adverse events.4 The contra-indications to high-dose NTG bolus are severe aortic stenosis, hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy, hypotension, and concurrent use of phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors. [...]while awaiting the fluid removal effect of diuretic therapy, high-dose NTG helped improve the respiratory distress and avoid an immediate need for intubation.
