Inotropes, such as milrinone, do not improve outcomes in patients admitted with acute decompensated heart failure or increase urine output. Inotropes may be considered in patients with low-output heart failure (low pulse pressure, cool extremities, presence of S3) to improve cardiac output but should not be used in the routine therapy of patients admitted with heart failure.
