Towards Personalized Vasopressor Support

Published: Aug. 27, 2020, 8 a.m.

b'In this episode of Critical Matters, we will discuss hypotension and new data on Angiotensin II within the context of our path towards personalized vasopressor support.\\n\\nOur guest is Dr. Ashish K. Khanna. Dr. Khanna is an anesthesia and critical care practicing physician. He is Associate Professor, and Section Head for Research, in the Department of Anesthesiology, Section on Critical Care Medicine of the Wake Forest School of Medicine, in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. He is a prolific author and researcher and was the lead author of the ATHOS-3 study in the New England Journal of Medicine. The results of which led to the approval of Angiotensin II as a vasopressor for the treatment of refractory hypotension in adults with septic or other types of distributive shock. \\n\\nLinks:\\nThe Relationship Between ICU Hypotension and In-Hospital Mortality and Morbidity in Septic Patients: https://bit.ly/2D1epJQ\\nAssociation between Mean Arterial Pressure and Acute Kidney Injury and a Composite of Myocardial Injury and Mortality in Postoperative Critically Ill Patients: A Retrospective Cohort Analysis: https://bit.ly/2QuyStz\\nAngiotensin II for the Treatment of Vasodilatory Shock (ATHOS-3 Trial): https://bit.ly/2G27hhB\\nSurvival After Shock Requiring High-Dose Vasopressor Therapy: https://bit.ly/2EkLm4P\\nRenin as a Marker of Tissue-Perfusion and Prognosis in Critically Ill Patients: https://bit.ly/3jiKT1L\\nRenin and Survival in Patients Given Angiotensin II for Catecholamine-Resistant Vasodilatory Shock: https://bit.ly/2G1tZGB\\n\\t\\nAdditional Content Related to Angiotensin II:\\nAngiotensin II for Vasodilatory Shock: 2019 Update: https://bit.ly/3hvVkyA\\nPersonalization of Vasopressor Therapy in the Treatment of Vasodilatory Shock: https://bit.ly/3hy7wyD'
