Vasopressin and landiolol are critical therapies for ensuring the vascular and cardiac systems are as close to optimal conditions as possible during septic shock. Better cardiovascular management in septic shock can help improve septic shock management. Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response...Read more

2023 01 Aug
Vasopressin is a potent vasopressor used to treat septic shock, acting via a different receptor than catecholamines. Previous randomised control trials have demonstrated its efficacy. However, its use can also lead to adverse effects such as ischaemia events. Therefore, it is recommended as a second-line agent after noradrenaline. Typically,...Read more

An article released in conjunction with the Intensive Care & Emergency Medicine (ISICEM) Congress helps clinicians understand the choice and timing of vasopressors in vasodilatory shock. It is one of ten reviews selected from the Annual Update in Intensive Care and Emergency Medicine 2022. Vasodilatory shock is one of the most common forms encountered...Read more

A Chinese research team performed a meta-analysis and trial sequential analysis of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) evaluating the effects of vasopressin receptor agonists in septic shock patients. Their findings show the use of vasopressin might result in reduced mortality in these patients, but an increased risk of digital ischaemia must be taken...Read more
