Vasopressors in Critical Care

The need for vasopressor therapy to support blood pressure is one of the most common causes for admission to an ICU. In this course we are going to take a look at the two primary ways that medications cause vascular constriction and the impact of arterial and venous constriction on overall hemodynamics.
