Methods for prediction of subject-specific hemodynamic response to vasopressors
Published Sunday, June 29, 2014BackgroundVasopressors are medications that raise blood pressure in a patient, which helps increase blood flow to peripheral tissues. Vasopressors are commonly used to treat patients who have a body wide reduction in blood circulation. Currently, vasopressors are administered manually by clinicians, who typically adjust dosage iteratively...
