Synthetic Vasopressin and Oxytocin Analogs and Their Potential Use in Hemorrhagic, Traumatic and Septic Shock: A Personal Perspective [PDF]
As one of us has stated many years ago, “shock is a significant and sustained loss of effective circulating blood volume. It will eventuate in hypoperfusion of critical peripheral tissues, thus leading to a deficit in transcapillary exchange function in ...

Escalation and de-escalation of mechanical circulatory support in cardiogenic shock
Cardiogenic shock (CS) is a clinical entity that includes a wide spectrum of different scenarios. Mechanical circulatory support (MCS) plays a fundamental role in the contemporary treatment of CS, and device selection is a key element in determining ...

Distinct host-response signatures in circulatory shock: a narrative review
Circulatory shock is defined syndromically as hypotension associated with tissue hypoperfusion and often subcategorized according to hemodynamic profile (e.g., distributive, cardiogenic, hypovolemic) and etiology (e.g., infection, myocardial infarction ...

Lactate concentration gradient from right atrium to pulmonary artery: a commentary [PDF]
Inadequate myocardial performance is a common complication of severe sepsis. Studies in humans strongly argue against a decrease in coronary blood flow in the pathogenesis of this sepsis-induced cardiac injury.
