Learn their mechanisms, receptor profiles, dosing, indications, and key differences in clinical use. We then test your knowledge with evidence-based practice questions to reinforce learning, perfect for exam preparation and real-world ICU application.
This is designed for critical care focused trainees, residents, advanced practice providers, ICU nurses, physicians, and other healthcare professionals looking to deepen their understanding of hemodynamic support agents.
What you’ll learn: Comparative mechanisms of common vasopressors and inotropes. When to choose one agent over another in different shock states. Dosing ranges, titration, and monitoring tips. Key adverse effects and contraindications. High-yield practice questions to test your knowledge.
