Cardiogenic shock is a high-acuity, potentially complex, and hemodynamically diverse state
of end-organ hypoperfusion that is frequently associated with multisystem organ failure …

Vasopressin is emerging as a rational therapy for the hemodynamic support of septic shock
and vasodilatory shock due to systemic inflammatory response syndrome. The goal of this …

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

Vasopressin is a potent vasopressor for improving organ perfusion during septic shock. The
rationale for the use of vasopressin is its relative deficiency of plasma levels and …

When blood pressure needs to be restored, norepinephrine is a reasonable first-line agent.
Dobutamine is the first-line inotrope agent wheraes levosimendan can be used as a second …

Vasopressin (AVP) is a key neurohormone involved in the regulation of body functions. Due
to its urine-concentrating effect in the kidneys, it is often referred to as antidiuretic hormone …

The rationale for an arginine vasopressin (argipressin) infusion was put forward after it was
discovered that patients in shock states might have an endogenous arginine vasopressin …

The present review analyses the mechanisms relating heart failure and hyponatremia,
describes the association of hyponatremia with the progress of disease and …

Objectives: To determine the effect of vasopressin therapy on the efficacy of oxygenation
and arterial pressure in infants with severe persistent pulmonary hypertension of the …

Acute right ventricular (RV) failure has until recently received relatively little attention in the
cardiology, critical care or anaesthesia literature. However, it is frequently encountered in …
