Short-term risk of death after treatment with nesiritide for decompensated heart failure

Article Abstract:

The safety of nesiritide relative to noninotrope-based control therapies, primarily consisting of diuretis or vasodilators is investigated. The results when compared with noninotrope-based control therapy suggested that nesiritide might be associated with an increased risk of death after treatment for acutely decompensated heart failure.
