Increase in heart rate Reduction of myocardial contractility Increase in sodium and water retention Vasoconstriction Inhibition of the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System (RAAS) None Ivabradine is used in the treatment of congestive cardiac failure due to its ability to: Inhibit the If channels in the heart Block the action of aldosterone e) Increase glucose reabsorption in the kidneys Decrease blood pressure Increase myocardial contractility None Diuretics are primarily used in congestive cardiac failure to: Increase myocardial contractility Reduce blood volume Increase heart rate Increase sodium retention Increase blood pressure None Which of the following medications is a phosphodiesterase 3 inhibitor used in the management of severe congestive cardiac failure? Dapagliflozin Carvedilol Milrinone Lisinopril Digoxin None Which medication is used in congestive cardiac failure primarily for its effect on reducing heart rate without affecting blood pressure or myocardial contractility?
