Increase cardiac contractility by stimulating B-1 receptors in the heart.

34
Q

Action of sympathomimetics

A
  1. Increase Cardiac output
  2. Increase Blood Pressure
  3. Increase Blood Glucose Level
35

Q

T/F
Dobutamine is direct B-1 adrenergic agent.

A

True

39
Q

Emergency management for Dilated Cardiomyopathy

A

Dobutamine

40
Q

A

Inhibits phosphodiesterase III activity to reduce the breakdown of cAMP

41
Q

MOA of Pimobendan as Vasodilator

A

Inhibits phosphodiesterases III and V in the vascular smooth muscle.
Protein Kinase C is inactivated and Intracellular calcium is decreased causing the dilation.
