PlumX metrics:
Angiotensin II (AT) is a potent vasoconstrictor and hypertensive drug that is registered for the treatment of severe hypotension in vasoplegic shock. Growing experience with the use of AT in cardiac surgery allows the first therapeutic algorithms to be created. This paper is a proposal for the use of AT in distributive shock after extracorporeal circulation.
