Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of vasodilator therapy on mortality in chronic congestive heart failure. Results of a Veterans Administration Cooperative Study.
Jay N. Cohn,Donald G. Archibald,Susan Ziesche,Joseph A. Franciosa,W. Eugene Harston,Felix E. Tristani,W. Bruce Dunkman,William R. Jacobs,Gary S. Francis,Kathleen H. Flohr,Steven Goldman,Frederick R. Cobb,Pravin M. Shah,Robert S. Saunders,Ross D. Fletcher,Henry S. Loeb,V. Hughes,Bonnie J. Baker +17 more
TL;DR: The data suggest that the addition of hydralazine and isosorbide dinitrate to the therapeutic regimen of digoxin and diuretics in patients with chronic congestive heart failure can have a favorable effect on left ventricular function and mortality.

Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of short-term infusion of sodium nitroprusside on mortality rate in acute myocardial infarction complicated by left ventricular failure: results of a Veterans Administration cooperative study.
Jay N. Cohn,Joseph A. Franciosa,Gary S. Francis,Donald G. Archibald,Felix E. Tristani,Ross D. Fletcher,Alfredo C. Montero,Guillermo Cintron,Janice Clarke,David Hager,Robert S. Saunders,Frederick R. Cobb,Raphael F. Smith,Henry S. Loeb,Harold Settle +14 more
TL;DR: The results in the patients given late treatment suggest that those with persistent pump failure might receive sustained benefit from short-term nitroprusside therapy, and should probably not be used routinely in patients with high left ventricular filling pressures after acute myocardial infarction.
Journal ArticleDOI
A method for modifying the image quality parameters of digital radiographic images.
Robert S. Saunders,Ehsan Samei +1 more
TL;DR: The findings indicate that the developed modification routines provide a good means of simulating the resolution and noise characteristics of digital radiographic systems for optimization or processing purposes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Getting More Performance from Performance Measurement
Christine K. Cassel,Patrick H. Conway,Suzanne F. Delbanco,Ashish K. Jha,Robert S. Saunders,Thomas H. Lee +5 more
TL;DR: Under today's performance-measurement paradigm, too many resources are invested in assessing too many activities that may not have major effects on patients' health.
