Vasopressor Management in Septic Shock: General Overview and Personalized Approaches

Despite important therapeutic advances, septic shock remains a major challenge associated with 30% to 40% hospital mortality. Vasopressor therapy is a fundamental treatment of septic shock-induced hypotension as it aims at correcting vascular tone depression and improving organ perfusion pressure.

This free webinar will provide a general overview of severe septic shock and consequently discuss the benefits of second-line vasopressors and their use in COVID-19 patients.

Join us on 8 April, from 16:00 – 17:00 CET and ask questions to our expert panel!
