2020年2月20日 · ⚠️ The MIDAS trial suggests that midodrine is not effective at accelerating the weaning off IV vasopressors among most ICU patients. ⚠️ Currently, best available evidence indicates that midodrine should not be used to hasten weaning off vasopressor infusions among non-cirrhotic patients.
Vasopressors — ICU One Pager
Here’s a #OnePager summarizing my approach to pressors including when to start, which ones to use, how to administer them, and when to increase or wean. Includes my favorite pedagogical device for vasopressor: the pressor-speedometer from beta to alpha adrenergic effects..
Inotropes and vasopressors are used to support or enhance blood flow and organ perfusion in haemodynamically unstable patients. Throughout their delivery the dose of these drugs is titrated to achieve a desired response, through increasing and decreasing the infusion rate .
The table outlines clinical indications, associated receptors, physiology, dosing, titration rates, and adverse effects of various vasopressors and inotropes.* CO = cardiac output, CVP = central venous pressure, SVO2 = mixed venous oxygen saturation, SVR = systemic vascular resistance *Refer to full prescribing information before administration.
Use of vasopressors and inotropes - UpToDate
Vasopressors are a powerful class of drugs that induce vasoconstriction and thereby elevate mean arterial pressure (MAP). Vasopressors differ from inotropes, which increase cardiac contractility; however, many drugs have both vasopressor and inotropic effects.
Inotropes, vasopressors and other vasoactive agents
2024年11月8日 · vasopressors are agents that cause vasoconstriction leading to increased systemic and/or pulmonary vascular resistance (SVR, PVR) — e.g. noradrenaline, vasopressin, metaraminol, vasopressin, methylene blue
