Medication errors and adverse drug events occur more frequently in the intensive care unit compared to general care units.1 Adverse drug events become more likely as patients receive more medications. Sentinel events and medication errors are more common as the number of failing organs increases.2,3 Vasopressors are frequently associated with adverse ...

An Overview of Inotropic Agents
Seminars in Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia, 2006The use of inotropic agents has been surrounded by many controversies. Recent guidelines for the treatment of patients with chronic and acute heart failure have elucidated some of the issues, but many remain. As a result, a substantial variability in the use of agents between institutions and caregivers remains, which mainly results from the lack of ...

Amrinone: Is it the inotrope of choice?
Journal of Cardiothoracic Anesthesia, 1989In the treatment of acute heart failure, conventional therapy with epinephrine, norepinephrine, dopamine, and dobutamine may be used effectively to treat inotropic abnormalities. However, the addition of a vasodilator to catecholamine therapy may be needed to help improve lusitropic function.

Critically ill children with shock frequently require the administration of inotropic and vasoactive agents. The appropriate choice of inotropic agent in these children forms only part of their overall management. In most cases children requiring inotropes should already have received aggressive fluid resuscitation and prompt tracheal intubation and ...

Vasopressor and inotropic agents have become a therapeutic cornerstone for the management of the critically ill patient. Vasopressors increase blood pressure through arteriolar vasoconstriction, whereas the inotropes increase contractility, improving cardiac output. Most vasopressor and inotropic agents in clinical use exert their cardiovascular effect

Sympathomimetics, Inotropics, and Vasodilators
AACN Advanced Critical Care, 1992Management of the critically ill patient often necessitates the use of multiple inotropic and vasoactive medications. This article offers a concise, clinical reference to guide the practicing clinician in the use of these agents. The focus is on parenteral agents used for acute rather than chronic management. Physiologic concepts basic to understanding

Inotropes and Vasopressors for Shock
DeckerMed Critical Care of the Surgical Patient, 2019Inotropes and vasopressors play a key role in the management of shock. The goal of therapy is to restore end-organ perfusion by augmenting cardiac output (CO) and vascular tone. Clinical trial data have thus far failed to identify precise hemodynamic end points associated with better outcomes; in any event, such end points are highly likely to be ...

Inotropes, pressors, and vasodilators
2011There has been a perceptible change in the approach to the managementof chronic heart failure (CHF) from focusing on inotropy,to a predominantly neurohormonal approach to therapeutic intervention.By contrast, in acute heart failure (AHF) the critical inabilityof the myocardium to maintain a cardiac output sufficient tomeet the demands of the peripheral
