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…

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…

Objective: Investigation of the hypothesis that the infusion of 10 ng/kg/min prostacyclin (epoprostenol) (PGI(2)) improves O-2 uptake in patients with hyperdynamic septic shock. Design: Prospective, single cohort design. Setting: ICU, university…

Objective: To test whether dopexamine hydrochloride, by its beta(2)-adrenoceptor and dopaminergic 1 (DA(1)) and dopaminergic 2 (DA(2)) agonistic properties, can improve oxygen consumption (V over dot O-2) in hyperdynamic patients with septic shock.…
