Applied physiology at the bedside: using invasive blood pressure as a true monitoring tool Open
Invasive arterial blood pressure (BP) monitoring is a cornerstone of hemodynamic assessment in critically ill patients. This review explores how the individual components of BP—systolic arterial (SAP), diastolic arterial (DAP), mean arteri…

Ability of diastolic arterial pressure to better characterize the severity of septic shock when adjusted for heart rate and norepinephrine dose Open
Background Septic shock is commonly associated with reduction in vasomotor tone, mainly due to vascular hyporesponsiveness to norepinephrine (NE). Although the diastolic arterial pressure (DAP)/heart rate (HR) ratio reflects vasomotor tone…

The Eight Unanswered and Answered Questions about the Use of Vasopressors in Septic Shock Open
Septic shock is mainly characterized—in addition to hypovolemia—by vasoplegia as a consequence of a release of inflammatory mediators. Systemic vasodilatation due to depressed vascular tone results in arterial hypotension, which induces or…
