What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Study the elimination rate of milrinone administered by inhalation
Time Frame: up to 24 hours
up to 24 hours

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Demonstrate the presence or absence of hemodynamic and echographic effects observed after inhalation of milrinone
Time Frame: 15 min after the of study drug administration
hemodynamic values evaluated will be: central venous pressure, systolic and diastolic pulmonary pressure, wedge, cardiac output, cardiac frequency, systolic and diastolic pressure, SaO2, EtCO2. Patient will also have arterial and venous gaz. Echographic values will be evaluated to see the cardiac fonction: left and right ventricular systolic and diastolic function and valvular function.
15 min after the of study drug administration
Confirmation of the safety of inhaled milrinone
Time Frame: 24 hours after cardiac surgery
Verification of the absence of deleterious effects on cardiac output and systemic arterial pressure.
24 hours after cardiac surgery
Determination of the efficacy of inhaled milrinone in the treatment of pulmonary hypertension
Time Frame: 15 min after end of milrinone administration
Efficacy in the treatment of pulmonary hypertension is defined as a reduction of the mean pulmonary pressure of 10-20 %
15 min after end of milrinone administration
