Article: Study investigates cardiovascular responses to norepinephrine.

2004 NOV 2 - (NewsRx.com & NewsRx.net) -- Researchers have investigated regional and temporal changes in cardiovascular responses to norepinephrine and vasopressin during continuous infusion of lipopolysaccharide in conscious rats.

Reduced pressor responsiveness to norepinephrine (NE) in sepsis is well documented but the associated regional hemodynamic changes are less well characterized, and there are varying reports of changes in haemodynamic responses to arginine vasopressin (AVP). We compared changes in regional hemodynamic responsiveness to AVP and NE during a 24 h continuous infusion of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in conscious rats."
