Low dose (renal dose) dopamine in the critically ill patient.
A best evidence topic in cardiac surgery was written according to a structured protocol. The question addressed was whether low dose (renal dose) dopamine in the critically ill patient prevents acute renal failure. Altogether 141 papers were found using the reported search, of which three presented the best evidence to answer the clinical question. The author, journal, date and country of publi...
متن کاملA comparison between fenoldopam and low-dose dopamine in early renal dysfunction of critically ill patients.
OBJECTIVE Fenoldopam mesylate is a selective dopamine-1 agonist, with no effect on dopamine-2 and alpha1 receptors, producing a selective renal vasodilation. This may favor the kidney oxygen supply/demand ratio and prevent acute renal failure. The aim of the study was to investigate if fenoldopam can provide greater benefit than low-dose dopamine in early renal dysfunction of critically ill pat...
متن کاملEffect of low-dose dopamine on serum concentrations of prolactin in critically ill patients.
Dopamine is a naturally occurring catecholamine with actions in the central nervous system and endocrine systems, including inhibition of prolactin release from the pituitary gland. Prolactin secretion has been shown to be increased in response to physiological stress, while hypoprolactinaemia is associated with a reduction in the cellular immune response. We have investigated the effects of lo...
متن کاملAntibiotic dose optimization in critically ill patients.
The judicious use of existing antibiotics is essential for preserving their activity against infections. In the era of multi-drug resistance, this is of particular importance in clinical areas characterized by high antibiotic use, such as the ICU. Antibiotic dose optimization in critically ill patients requires sound knowledge not only of the altered physiology in serious infections - including...
متن کاملRenal management in the critically ill patient.
Acute kidney injury is common in the hospital setting and morbidity and mortality outcomes depend on early recognition and early intervention. Identifying patients at risk of acute kidney injury is critical in prevention, early identification, and appropriate treatment.
