Nesiritide should be considered for patients presenting with acutely typical or useful decompensated heart failure, especially those with dyspnea at rest or with minimal activity. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

MHS, Associate Professor, Duke Clinical Research Institute, presented the results during a late-breaking clinical trial presentation during the Scientific Sessions of the American Heart Association. [cardiobrief.org]

Medical experts say the results, presented Sunday at the American Heart Association meeting, show there is a lesson to be learned about the effectiveness of small studies over all. [nytimes.com]

  • Intravenous Administration

    As a peptide, nesiritide has poor bioavailability and therefore is only available for intravenous administration. With a short half-life of less than 20 minutes, it is administered as a continuous infusion following a bolus injection. [cvpharmacology.com]
