BACKGROUND: Hemodynamics often are used as surrogate end points in phase II trials of acute heart failure (HF). We reviewed the Flolan International Randomized Survival Trial (FIRST) database to identify the hemodynamic variables that best predict survival in patients with advanced HF receiving epoprostenol therapy and to determine whether hemodynamics could predict the overall effect of a drug. METHODS: The trial enrolled 471 patients with class IIIb/IV HF and ejection fraction
