Résumé
This study examines the effects of levosimendan in patients refractory to dobutamine weaning. This retrospective study included patients with cardiogenic shock refractory to dobutamine weaning failure admitted between 2010 and 2022. Patients treated with another type of dobutamine alone were compared with those treated with levosimendan in combination with dobutamine. Successful inotrope withdrawal was defined as survival without catecholamine support, transplant, or definitive ventricular assist device at 30 days. Secondary outcomes included all-cause mortality at 30 and 90 days. Among 349 patients with cardiogenic shock and failure to withdraw from dobutamine, levosimendan was administered in combination with dobutamine in 114 patients, and another type of dobutamine alone was administered in 235 patients. At 30 days, successful inotrope withdrawal occurred in 46 (43.4%) patients taking levosimendan plus dobutamine versus 24 (10.5%) patients in the dobutamine-only group (weighted odds ratio [OR] 4.99, 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.65-9.38; p < 0.001), with similar results at 90 days (weighted OR 6.16, 95% CI 3.22-11.78; p < 0.001). Levosimendan + dobutamine was associated with lower 30-day mortality (weighted OR 0.47, 95% CI 0.26-0.84; p = 0.01), with no difference at 90 days (weighted OR 0.67, 95% CI 0.39-1.14; p = 0.14). Adding levosimendan to dobutamine may improve inotrope withdrawal success and reduce 30-day mortality in patients with initial weaning failure.

BACKGROUND

METHODS
METHODS
This retrospective study included patients with cardiogenic shock refractory to dobutamine weaning failure admitted between 2010 and 2022. Patients treated with another type of dobutamine alone were compared with those treated with levosimendan in combination with dobutamine. Successful inotrope withdrawal was defined as survival without catecholamine support, transplant, or definitive ventricular assist device at 30 days. Secondary outcomes included all-cause mortality at 30 and 90 days.
RESULTS
RESULTS
Among 349 patients with cardiogenic shock and failure to withdraw from dobutamine, levosimendan was administered in combination with dobutamine in 114 patients, and another type of dobutamine alone was administered in 235 patients. At 30 days, successful inotrope withdrawal occurred in 46 (43.4%) patients taking levosimendan plus dobutamine versus 24 (10.5%) patients in the dobutamine-only group (weighted odds ratio [OR] 4.99, 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.65-9.38; p < 0.001), with similar results at 90 days (weighted OR 6.16, 95% CI 3.22-11.78; p < 0.001). Levosimendan + dobutamine was associated with lower 30-day mortality (weighted OR 0.47, 95% CI 0.26-0.84; p = 0.01), with no difference at 90 days (weighted OR 0.67, 95% CI 0.39-1.14; p = 0.14).
CONCLUSION
CONCLUSIONS
Adding levosimendan to dobutamine may improve inotrope withdrawal success and reduce 30-day mortality in patients with initial weaning failure.
