Hi, it’s Patrik Hutzel from intensivecarehotline.com with another quick tip for families in intensive care.

So currently, we’re working with a client who has their father in intensive care with inotropic or vasopressor support, such as norepinephrine or noradrenaline, as well as adrenaline or epinephrine. And that inotropic or vasopressor support has been maxed out and that is certainly not a good thing.

So the family’s asking what’s going to happen next. Well, the reality is that, if inotropic or vasopressor support is maxed out, your loved one may be as close to death as they ever would get be. And if vasopressors or inotropic support can’t be reduced. You know, things are looking pretty grim, especially if the inotrope or vasopressor doses are at the maximum level of support.

So, the family’s asking or our client is asking, are there any alternatives? Well, there are some alternatives, depending on the situation. In this situation, the client’s father is septic.
