“…The actions of levosimendan on left ventricular diastolic function were, however, partially mediated through an intact autonomic nervous system. These findings are supported by other investigations conducted in conscious dogs with normal left ventricular function (60,64). The hemodynamic and left ventricular functional actions ( Fig.…”

“…Both in whole hearts and in vivo, levosimendan caused direct positive inotropic effects and improved ventricular filling (43,83,120). The most important characteristic of levosimendan is that it, unlike EMD57033, did not impair relaxation kinetics in vitro (44) or in vivo (43,83,120). These studies may indicate that levosimendan selectively enhances systolic function and diastolic filling without affecting ventricular relaxation indices.…”

“…Like EMD57033, levosimendan increased developed tension in papillary muscles without a change in the calcium transient, confirming calcium sensitization as a major mechanism of positive inotropy (44). Both in whole hearts and in vivo, levosimendan caused direct positive inotropic effects and improved ventricular filling (43,83,120). The most important characteristic of levosimendan is that it, unlike EMD57033, did not impair relaxation kinetics in vitro (44) or in vivo (43,83,120).…”
