Filter by:Norepinephrine was recommended as the first vasopressor for septic shock resuscitation. For the patient who did not response to high dose norepinephrine, epinephrine was recommended. Vasopressin was also recommended as an alternative vasopressor, in case patient did not response to norepinephrine and or epinephrine. Terlipressin, a selective V1 receptor binding with long half life, was reported that it main action is to increase blood pressure via the different mechanism from norepinephrine and epinephrine. To use terlipressin, combine with norepinephrine and or epinephrine among refractory septic shock, could decrease the usage dose of norepinephrine and epinephrine as well as lower the side effects of too high adrenergic stimuli.
A randomized, prospective study comparing methylene blue versus terlipressin in treatment of catecholamines resistant shock in preterm neonate
The ICU mortality rate of patients with septic shock was still high upto 54.1%.In first 6 hours of resuscitation, the goals of resuscitation in sepsis shock after adequate fluid resuscitation is MAP ≥65 mmHg. In refractory septic shock patient, prolong shock correlate with poor outcome due to multiple organ failure. Alternative vasopressor in septic shock with catecholamine resistance has been studied such as terlipressin, methylene blue - Terlipressin (TP) mediate vasoconstriction via V1 receptors coupled to phospholipase C, and increases intracellular Ca2+ concentration - Methylene blue (MB) directly inhibits nitric oxide synthase (NOS) by inhibit the enzyme guanylate cyclase (GC)
