The use of hydroxocobalamin for vasoplegic syndrome in left ventricular assist device patients

Clinical Case Reports, 2020
We demonstrate evidence supporting the efficacy of hydroxocobalamin in reducing vasopressor requirements for LVAD patients with refractory vasoplegia. Further study is needed to substantiate these findings and determine its optimal use in practice.
