Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine if intravenous push metoclopramide would facilitate immediate transpyloric passage of a small-bore feeding tube without fluoroscopy or endoscopy. Design: Prospective, randomized trial. Patients:…

Objectives: To test whether dopamine infusion improves oxygen delivery (D over dot O-2) and oxygen uptake (V over dot O-2) in hyperdynamic septic shock patients stabilized by adequate volume and dobutamine alone, or by the combination of dobutamine…

Objective: To assess the effects of epinephrine on splanchnic perfusion and splanchnic oxygen uptake in patients with septic shock. Design: Prospective, controlled trial. Setting: University hospital intensive care unit (ICU). Patients: Eight…

Objectives: Deactivation of endothelium-derived relaxing factor due to an increased oxygen radical load during sepsis may contribute to an impairment in microcirculatory blood flow. We investigated whether treatment with the sulfhydryl donor and…
