Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Nesiritide is more effective than nitroglycerin in modifying inflammatory and neurohormonal biomarkers without renal toxicity when proper infusion duration is administered.
