THE NAPA TRIAL: Nesiritide A dministered Peri-Anesthesia in Patients Undergoing Cardiac Surgery Mark J. Russo, MD, MS Division of Cardiothoracic Surgery & International Center for Health Outcomes and Innovation Research College of Physicians and Surgeons, Columbia University, New York, NY
2
BACKGROUND Nesiritide is recombinant human B-type natriuretic peptide When administered to patients with heart failure, it: –decreases preload and afterload –decreases pulmonary vascular resistance –increases cardiac output In some studies: –increased urine output –reduced diuretic requirements –suppression of aldosterone, endothelin, norepinephrine Introduction Methods Results Summary
3
BACKGROUND Nesiritide is approved for treatment of patients with acutely decompensated congestive heart failure who have dyspnea at rest or with minimal activity Several small, retrospective studies suggested beneficial effects in patients undergoing cardiac surgery Introduction Methods Results Summary

Evaluation and Management of Patients With ADHF: Recommendations Patients admitted with ADHF and evidence of fluid overload be treated initially with loop diuretics When congestion fails to improve in response to diuretic therapy, the following options should be considered -Sodium and fluid restriction -Increased doses of loop diuretics -Continuous infusion of a loop diuretic -Addition of a second type of diuretic -Ultrafiltration In the absence of symptomatic hypotension, IV NTG, NTP, or nesiritide may be considered as an addition to diuretic therapy for rapid improvement of congestive symptoms in patients with ADHF Adams KF et al. J Card Fail. 2006;12:10
47
Section 12: Evaluation and Management of Patients with ADHF 12.15- “In the absence of hypotension, IV NTG, sodium nitroprusside or nesiritide may be considered as an addition to diuretic therapy for rapid improvement of congestive symptoms in patients admitted with ADHF”. [Strength of evidence B] 12.17- “Intravenous vasodilators, (nitroprusside, nitroglycerin or nesiritide) may be considered in patients with ADHF and advanced HF who have persistent severe HF despite aggressive treatment with diuretics and standard oral therapies” [Strength of evidence C] J Cardiac Failure. 2006;12:10–38
48
Evaluation and Management of Patients With ADHF: Recommendations 12.16 IV vasodilators (IV NTG or NTP) and diuretics are recommended for rapid relief in patients with acute pulmonary edema or severe hypertension IV inotropes (milrinone or dobutamine) may be considered to relieve symptoms and improve end-organ function in patients with advanced HF J Cardiac Failure. 2006;12:10–38
