Vasoplegia is a ubiquitous phenomenon in all advanced shock states, including septic,
cardiogenic, hemorrhagic, and anaphylactic shock. Its pathophysiology is complex, involving …

Purpose To delineate some of the characteristics of septic vascular hypotension, to assess
the most commonly cited and reported underlying mechanisms of vascular …

Objective To compare the effects of arginine-vasopressin (AVP) and norepinephrine (NE) on
hemodynamic variables, organ dysfunction, and adverse events in early hyperdynamic …

Background: Vasopressin is essential for cardiovascular homeostasis, acting via the kidney
to regulate water resorption, on the vasculature to regulate smooth muscle tone, and as a …

Early initiation of a multimodal treatment strategy in the management of vasopressors during
septic shock has been advocated to reduce delays in restoring adequate organ perfusion …

This review of vasopressin in septic shock differs from previous reviews by providing more
information on the physiology and pathophysiology of vasopressin and vasopressin …

Introduction Catecholamines are the most used vasopressors in vasodilatory shock.
However, the development of adrenergic hyposensitivity and the subsequent loss of …

Anesthesiologists are increasingly confronting the difficult problem of caring for patients with
sepsis in the operating room and in the intensive care unit. Sepsis occurs in more than …

Rationale: Vasopressin has been proposed as a potent vasoactive agent in the treatment of
vasodilatory shock in adults and children. The objective of this trial was to evaluate the …

Materials and methods In this prospective, randomized control trial, 50 adult patients with
septic shock were randomized into two groups. Group I received a combination of injection …
