Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: a reduction in bronchoconstriction, measured by auto-PEEP, in patients with AE-COPD. ;Secondary Objective: To test for a dose-dependency. <br>Decrease in pulmonary artery pressures<br>Enhance cardiac output<br>Measure occurrence of side effects by enoximone administration <br>;Primary end point(s): Auto-PEEP in cmH2O;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: One hour after every enoximone dose
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Secondary end point(s): Respiratory parameters:<br>- Lungcompliance in L/cmH2O <br>- Airway resistance in cmH2O/L/s<br>- VCO2<br>- etCO2<br>- FiO2<br><br>Cardiac parameters:<br>- RVSP<br>- Cardiac output<br>- TAPSE<br>- MAPSE<br><br>Arterial blood gas analysis (2 ml of blood, obtained through an arterial cannula):<br>- pH, PaCO2, PaO2, saturation, lactate, base excess, <br><br>Vital Signs:<br>- Occurrence of adverse side effects such as (supraventricular) arrhythmics and hypotension<br>;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: The respiratory variables are measured every 15 minutes for 5 hours after the first enoximone dose.<br>The cardiac variables and bloodgas analysis are measured every hour for 5 hours after the first enoximone dose<br>The vital signs are measured continously for 5 hours after the first enoximone dose.
